Narrative:
I had just opened local east 1 at the start of the day shift. I was briefed on closures which included taxiways M3; M4; M5; el between runway 17R and runway 17C and M between M3 and M5. I cleared aircraft X to land on runway 17C and advised him of the taxiway closures and asked that he plan to exit at M6. I then cleared aircraft Y to land and advised them to plan the same exit. On landing; aircraft X advised that M6 was coned off and not usable. I sent aircraft Y around ; but noticing that they may have touched down and seeing that enough of aircraft X appeared to be on the un-coned portion of M6; advised aircraft Y to disregard. Aircraft Y did go around. Dfw airport authority said that M6 was closed and they just forgot to tell us.
