Route description

Spur 482 begins at State Highway 183 (SH 183) near the site of the former Texas Stadium and almost immediately has an interchange with SH 114. Crossing the Trinity River, the highway drops its freeway status and becomes a surface street. The highway crosses under Interstate 35E (I-35E) without any direct access and ends at a complex interchange with Loop 12/Harry Hines Boulevard.

History

Spur 482 was designated on January 7, 1971, replacing a section of Loop 12.

Future

The western terminus of Spur 482 is part of the Irving Diamond Interchange project.[2] The project, also known as the Ultimate Diamond Interchange,[3] is designed to relieve traffic on Loop 12 in the area and redo the interchanges with SH 183 and SH 114.

Major intersections

The entire highway is in Dallas County.
