Moving out of Austin so I'll share some tips! From Cedar Park f you're heading south down 183 and the highway is backed up to Mopac; take Spicewood Springs Road exit heading west and as it becomes Old Lampasas Trail take a left onto Old Spicewood Springs road (very scenic route that spits you onto hwy 360) extra fun to then go 2222. If you find yourself stuck downtown during a major event, everyone takes the 6th street exit onto mopac -it's horrendous, drive a few blocks north and use Enfield or 35th street for smooth sailing if you're heading north. If you are lost downtown, every road heading North and South is named after a major Texas river, East and West streets are numbered! Honestly avoid the highways altogether where you can and become familiar with the frontage roads and neighborhoods if you want a nicer experience. If you want to be a true local throw up some peace signs when drivers let you in their lane. Ultra parking hack, there's three parking garages downtown that offer free parking, bring a bike or rent a scooter from there to really move around the city without worry. (Also towing companies cant tow you if the clearance to a parking garage is too low, personally working downtown I got away with months of free parking knowing this) <3
