Believe this is the same road they are talking about completely revamping anyway. I guess this will have to be part of it.
I still find it insanity that the only connector from downtown to Mopac runs through a city park. But this is also the city where the interstate runs right through downtown. 🤷♂️
Cesar Chavez has direct connections to the express lanes, and also shares an offramp with 5th St.from Mopac, but they each have their own westbound connections onto Mopac. Cesar Chavez only connects to Mopac, but 6th St. keeps going past Mopac where it becomes Lake Austin Blvd. 15th St. is aka Enfield, it keeps going past Mopac where it dead ends into Lake Austin Blvd at Hula Hut/Mozart’s. 24th St. is aka Windsor, which also keeps going west through Tarrytown. I’d consider anything south of Dean Keeton to be downtown, personally
