Road construction along East I-30 has temporarily shut off the primary entrance to Group 1 Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM in Rockwall, with the dealership directing customers to enter instead through the neighboring Group 1 Ford of Rockwall driveway next door.

The dealership, located at 970 East I-30, announced the change on social media. "We have a detour for our entrance while Road Construction is being done," the post read. "Please enter through the Group 1 Ford of Rockwall Driveway." Maps were also provided to help customers navigate the alternate route, though the dealership did not specify whether those are posted on-site, available online, or distributed in another form.

Group 1 Ford sits at 990 East I-30, directly adjacent to the Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM lot under the same Group 1 Automotive brand, making its driveway the nearest practical alternative for customers arriving off the interstate frontage road.

The dealership's announcement included no projected end date for the construction, leaving the detour's duration open. It also did not address whether the alternate entrance handles service lane traffic, vehicle deliveries, or other dealership operations. Customers with existing appointments can reach the dealership at (469) 698-2100 to confirm access before arriving.

East I-30 through Rockwall has been subject to active construction as part of a TxDOT expansion and frontage road improvement project in the area. Rockwall County has projected the earliest expected use of related bridge work for late 2026 or early 2027, though the dealership did not specify whether its entrance detour is tied to that larger project or a separate construction phase.
