Helpful Tips

•  Chill Out and Drive - If you insist on driving in the DFW area during peak hours, bring some CDs and a good dose of patience. You're probably going to be out there awhile.

•  Express Yourself - Dallas, Fort Worth and the mid-cities are in an endless state of construction. The improved Central Expressway is a better north-south option.

•  From East to West - If you're traveling east-west, ditch some congestion by using the new President George Bush Turnpike (north side of the Metroplex) or I-20 to the south.
