Directions
Leander is one giant speed trap. Please use caution
while driving through the Leander area, especially
County Road 279 (also known as Bagdad Road). The
speed limit on Bagdad Road north of FM 2243 is 45
mph. I usually have to set my cruise control--I
just can't seem to control my car any other way,
especially since it is so easy to go fast on a
seemingly deserted country road. Deserted by
everyone except the Williamson County Sheriff,
Leander Police and state troopers. If you go on
Bagdad Road south of FM 2232 the speed limit changes
to 40 mph. We now have 183A which makes it
incredibly easy to zip up to our kennel but you must
have a Tex Tag to be able to use it.
FROM THE NORTH:
Go South on 183. We are a few miles south of Seward
Junction (Hwy 29). Stay on old Hwy 183—do not take
the toll road. Turn right on San Gabriel Parkway
(blinking yellow light) that is right before you get
to the HEB Plus. Follow the rest of directions as
below.
FROM THE SOUTH:
Go north on Hwy 183 and stay on it while it turns
into 183A (it's worth the toll). You'll cross FM
1431 and then the toll road runs out and turns into
frontage road. Go through the next two lights (New
Hope Road and Crystal Falls Parkway) and then turn
left at the third light which is FM 2243. Continue
on FM 2243 until you reach the light at Hwy 183 and
turn right. Drive past the big HEB Plus and turn
left at the blinking yellow light after you pass the
HEB. That is San Gabriel Parkway. Go .9 miles
where it dead ends into Halsey Road and turn left at
the stop sign. Go to the end of Halsey (.6 miles)
and turn right on Bagdad Road. Proceed until you
reach Live Oak (2.1 miles from where Halsey dead
ends into Bagdad Road (also known as County Road
279). Turn right on Live Oak (which is across from
a small cemetery). Drive .7 miles and take the
second left which is Arthur Circle. Drive straight
into our driveway (4205). There's a black iron gate
with Gold Ducat on it.
FROM I-35 AND/OR THE EAST:
You can also get to us from I-35, from North or
South. Take the FM 2243 exit (also known as Old
Leander Road). Go approximately 13 miles to Hwy 183
and turn right. Go past the HEB Plus on your left
and follow the above directions.
Eventually San Gabriel Parkway will go all the way
through to the Toll Road. |
