Local driving tips
- Game days and concerts in the entertainment district close lanes and change traffic patterns around I-30, SH 360 and Collins St. Plan around event times.
- Work zones on I-20 and SH 360 shift lanes often. Slow down and watch for lane changes at night.
- If a crash blocks a lane, move your car to the shoulder if you can and it is safe. Texas law asks drivers to move cars out of the lanes when no one is hurt.
