Traffic

Expect heavy traffic on Wellborn Road, University Drive and George Bush Drive and avoid those areas, if possible. FM 2818 traffic is usually lighter pre-game and provides a faster route to many parking areas.

Make note of gameday road closures that begin either four hours pre-game or at 8 a.m., whichever is later:

• Coke Street closes north of Lewis Street – access allowed for D permits and disabled parking; opens 1.5 hours post-game.
• Olsen Boulevard closes near Reed Arena – access allowed for E, G, P permits & ParkMobile permits; opens 1.5 hours post-game.
• Houston Street closes at George Bush Drive – access only for C permits, Lot 69 & Texas A&M Foundation; opens  one hour post-game.
• Joe Routt/Stallings Boulevard closes until 1.5 hours post-game.
• Several other road closures begin around the start of the fourth quarter to help fans exit the parking lots and garages.
