The only problem I10 is creating for thoe of us who live here is the fact you cannot get on or off I-10 for a 5 mile or so stretch. It has not slowed us down any of the times we have driven north and we normally get on I-10 from the south side of Tucson.

<br><br>Lyn wrote:<br>> Hi Lisa,<br>><br>> Is the construction you are talking about the Tucson area? If so it<br>> is about 5 miles of 2 lanes both side while they widen it. I have<br>> driven to the San Antonia / Austin area for years, the last time was
<br>> this last July, I-10 is good all the way, east of El Paso Tx you will<br>> hit some mountains, long hills but you won't lose any time. I usually<br>> drive Tucson to New Braunsfels (halfway between Austin and San
<br>> Antonia) in about 13 or 14 hours. But that is because I am<br>> impatient! Have a wonderful trip.<br>Thanks, Lyn. :) My understanding was that it was widening either in<br>Tucson, or between Tucson & Phoenix, I wasn't sure. I've driven the
<br>I-10 route past Junction, cutting over on 290 through Johnson City &<br>Fredericksburg and on into Austin several times, so I'm very familiar<br>with it (and how loooong that stretch in west Texas seems!). And I love
<br>New Braunfels (actually grew up in Wimberley, about halfway between<br>Austin & San Antonio, but further west, so I'm very familiar with the<br>area). Dad and I once made the Austin/Phoenix drive in 12 hours. I
<br>don't know how we did it, but I'm sure it wasn't legal, esp since that<br>was before the speed limit increases went into effect. I definitely<br>inherited my lead foot from my dad :). I wish our trips didn't take so
<br>long now, but with the kids our stops tend to be a while (and even with<br>my husband...I'm more of a "quick stop, back on the road and get this<br>done" kind of person than he is).<br><br>Thanks everyone,
