Where it runs
The President George Bush Turnpike arcs across the north side of the Dallas area. It starts at I-20 in Grand Prairie, runs north through Irving, swings east through Carrollton, North Dallas, Plano, Richardson and Garland, and curves south through Sachse and Rowlett, crossing Lake Ray Hubbard to end at I-30 in Garland.
Where cars get stuck
Tolls are electronic only, and the frontage roads alongside come and go, so in some stretches the shoulder is the only place to stop. On the east end, the mile-long bridge over Lake Ray Hubbard has no exit until the far shore, and the interchanges with I-35E, US-75 and SH-78 bring heavy merging.
If you stop here
- Losing power on the Lake Ray Hubbard bridge? Keep going to the far shore if the car still moves.
- Elsewhere, exit to a frontage road if there is one, or use the right shoulder.
- Hazards on, seat belt on, doors locked while traffic passes.
- On the bridge or anywhere else on the turnpike, never stand between the car and the lanes.
- The turnpike curves from north–south to east–west, so name the last road you crossed along with your direction and the nearest exit.
What we fix on the shoulder
Service prices; one dispatch fee is added per job.

Questions
01Are the Bush Turnpike, SH-190 and SH-161 the same road?
They overlap. The tolled turnpike follows SH-161 on the west side in Grand Prairie and Irving and SH-190 across the north and east, and the frontage roads carry those state route signs. Any of the names works if you add the nearest exit.
02Can you reach me on the Bush Turnpike at night?
Yes, we dispatch 24/7. Give us your direction, the nearest exit and a description of the car, and keep your hazards on so the technician can spot you.
