The road is good and I always take it to get over to I10 westbound. In recent years the area has built up quite a bit and it can get quite busy at times. Not so good during school transportation hours as there's a couple of schools to deal with and the 281/46 area has gotten quite commercial. My GPS wants to send me down to 1604 around the north side of San Antonio these day but I don't want the extra mileage. It's getting to the point there's no good option.
