TC1957 Posted March 5, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Without checking them on a map site...they look correct. Be advised that TX 8 is a toll road. Looks like you will only use it for a short distance but you may want to have some change handy to avoid the line for the booth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbecky Posted March 5, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Ok I don't see how to avoid that. When I put into mapquest I check avoid tolls and that is what it gives me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC1957 Posted March 5, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 5, 2014 By the way...to get from IAH to Galveston you go through downtown Houston. Even when it isn't rush hour the traffic can be HORRIBLE due to a great deal of road construction. Allow a lot more time than the map software predicts.
