AUSTIN (KXAN) — Austin is not at the top of a 100 list and it’s a good thing! The new list for Texas’ 100 Most Congested Roads shows Interstate 35 through downtown Austin slipped from first place to second place behind Houston’s 610 West Loop between Interstate 10 and U.S. 59 (Southwest Freeway).

The study, which is conducted by Texas A&M Transportation Institute, looks at 1,900 sections of roads across the state to compile the list. This year, the study augmented its GPS speed reports with speed data from INRIX, which ends up calculating a more accurate time people spend sitting in traffic. In Texas, metro drivers spend 52 hours of their time stuck in traffic.

The drive on 610 from Southwest Freeway to I-10 is less than two miles, but the study indicates during rush hour, that 5-minute drive can be more than 100 percent longer.

While I-35 through Austin fell to No. 2, it’s still No. 1 in congestion for truck drivers. According to the study, the traffic situation on I-35 costs drivers $215.22 every year.

Out of the Top 10 roads, six were in Harris County, three in Dallas County and one in Travis County. I-35 between SH 71 and Slaughter Lane ranked 22 on the list.Even though the traffic can be horrendous, KXAN’s Traffic Reporter Amanda Dugan helps you navigate through the crashes every morning Monday through Friday on KXAN News Today!
