Your safety and convenience on the TEXpress Lanes are our top priorities. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with this new type of roadway system before you drive it.
Determine which LBJ TEXpress Lanes entrances and exits you will need to use prior to your trip. Detailed diagrams and driving videos of each entrance and exit ramp, located under the Maps section, will teach you to drive like a pro.
Enjoy faster, more predictable travel on the LBJ TEXpress Lanes. Although the speed limit is 75 mph, our congestion-management pricing aims to keep traffic moving at least 50 mph, even during peak travel times.
Local law enforcement personnel patrol the LBJ TEXpress Lanes and enforce all traffic laws and HOV 2+ rules.
We have dedicated service vehicles staffed by friendly, professional operations crew members to help you with any minor roadside emergencies. If you are stranded, call 214-960-5711 and then just remain in your vehicle until our roadside crew arrives.
A minimum of two TEXpress Lanes per direction and wide shoulders provide extra capacity to accommodate any incidents that occur inside the lanes. If you must stop for any reason while you're in the TEXpress Lanes, pull safely onto the shoulders.
Concrete barriers completely separate the TEXpress Lanes from the adjacent free general highway lanes, making driving on the lanes both safe and reliable.
You'll see current toll pricing posted on highway signs well in advance of every LBJ TEXpress Lanes entrance. Then dedicated ramps will guide you into the lanes and back onto the general highway lanes and frontage roads without having to cut through traffic to access them.
