Built for the NTTA, this toll tunnel enables vehicular traffic to travel under rather than around the airport, which expands traffic capacity and eases the notorious congestion of north Dallas and Addison by providing an east–west route between the Dallas North Tollway and Interstate 35E under the Addison Airport runway. It provides motorists a through passage on Keller Springs Road, which once ended on either side of Addison Airport, as an alternate route to the heavily traveled Belt Line Road and Trinity Mills Road. The lanes of the Addison Airport Toll Tunnel toll plaza are equipped for electronic toll collection via TollTag. As of July 2021, the toll charged on the Addison Airport Toll Tunnel is US$0.70 for a two-axle vehicle with TollTag.

White Rock Creek is a 30-mile (48.3 km) creek (cf. river) occupying a chain of four sub-watersheds [1] within the Trinity River Headwaters watershed. From its source near Frisco, Texas at 33°07'54"N/96°46'50"W, this creek runs south-by-south-east through suburban Dallas for 23.5 miles (37.8 km) where it widens into White Rock Lake, then continues south for another 8 miles (12.9 km) to its mouth at 32°43'25"N/96°44'02"W on the Trinity River, of which it is a major tributary. Despite running through one of the most populous areas of Texas, and flowing under many major roads and highways, its banks remain heavily wooded and undisturbed in many places and many local parks are situated within its watershed, which is generally considered to extend 2 to 2.5 miles (3.2 to 4 km) either side of its path.
