I live in South Austin more towards the west side so I take MoPac/Loop 1, which is a freeway, home frequently, plus my Keller Williams Office is on the MoPac Access Rd so I see a lot of it.![]()
Every now and then as I am driving north and just passing the 71/290/Southwest Pkwy exit I will see either a group of people running across or a single person walking across MoPac in that area. My question is what could be on the other side of the freeway that is so important that you would risk your life and/or getting a nice ticket? Why not just walk the extra few minutes to the intersection and use a nice semi-safe
crosswalk?
Was there a rumor that a pot of gold left over from the last rainbow is over there? Do they think that there are new sports cars waiting on the other side for the most brave souls? Actually Walmart is in the area, did they hear that there are some serious "Rollbacks" on the price of TVs? What would it take to get you to take that chance?
I don't get it, and other drivers definitely don't get it. Be safe out there!

Why use an Agent to purchase a new home?
The advantages of having an agent help you purchase a new home are the same as those for purchasing a resale home...![]()
The builder has a professional representative watching out for his/her needs, and you need the same expert representation.
It is very important that your interests be professionally represented when you are entering into a contract for a semi-custom or build-to-suit home. These transactions are complex and the contract details must be exact in order to protect you and to ensure you get exactly the home you want!
Did you know that in Austin one can legally ride ones bicycle on the shoulder of the local freeway Loop 1, locally known as MoPac? Did you also know that some of our citizens actually do it? You would have to have nerves of steel in order to even attempt this; some of you may know that Austin is home to some of
Texas' worse drivers who spend a good portion of their drive on MoPac veering over onto the shoulder. Follow my drift?
Did you also know that one can walk on the Loop 1/ MoPac's shoulder just to get to where your going? I don't mean the poor drivers who's car breaks down and has to walk in order to get help or to just get to safety, I mean the guy or girl (I have seen a girl do it) who just wakes up in the morning, leaves the house on foot and decides that MoPac is the route that they will take. It's true. We have some brave if not, dare I say, foolish souls who take advantage of this loop hole that needs to be closed and soon.
Currently you can only do this south of the river/ Lady Bird Lake and in one small area MoPac is the only way to get from Southwest Pkwy to 360, but there is no reason to ride your bike or walk on freeway shoulder north or south of those locations.
This sounds kind of weird to me! Keep Austin Weird!
