As you know, the Eastern Extension of The President George Bush Turnpike (toll road) is OPEN and boy is it fabulous! But if for some reason you're still not sure where this NTTA Extension is, the 9.9 mile Eastern Extension of the PGB Turnpike is between State Highway 78 & Interstate 30You can read more about it's opening here.  


Along the 9.9 miles, you’ll find your way to great shopping and dining along the way & even be taken to Firewheel Town Center, which is a Main Street-style shopping, dining and entertainment center that also has an outside Park and trackless Train. Be sure to check frequently on what's going on at Firewheel Town Center.   


In addition to the different businesses & restaurants, you can also travel the one-mile bridge over Lake Ray Hubbard and continue DIRECTLY onto Interstate 30 nonstop! Talk about cutting down your commute time!  


As with any NTTA roadway, the best way to drive, & the most Cost Effective way is with a TollTag. ZipCash customers pay 50 percent more than TollTag customers. A trip on the extension from I-30 to Firewheel Parkway costs $1.52 with a TollTag, compared to $2.28 with ZipCash. 

 
Experience the 9.9-mile drive with this Video on the NTTA’s YouTube channel. Take the drive yourself and Explore all the Fun that's out here!

Samantha,

Great blog! I have been on the turnpike several times.  Love the quick access over to 30 from Wylie after zigzagging through the back roads all these years!

THanks Tracy! I couldn't agree more ... the commute time has definetly been cut down not to mention it's less hazardous at night than the back roads!
