Dallas County Highway Traffic Program

project
4 mentions across 4 events
The Dallas County Highway Traffic Program was an interlocal arrangement between the City of Dallas and Dallas County. Under it, the Dallas County Sheriff's Office handled freeway traffic enforcement and crash response within Dallas city limits. The Sheriff's Office took over primary freeway coverage in southern Dallas County in 2008, which let the Dallas Police Department focus resources on neighborhoods. Dallas County has since given notice ending the agreement, and the Dallas Police Department is expanding its Traffic Unit to take over freeway enforcement, HOV lane enforcement and crash investigations.
