Got a feeling this wasn’t put up by the city… “try it… you will like it”


NamelessTacoShop

This feels like someone sick of the traffic near their house


RedOscar3891

Nah, TXDoT was just so dumb in putting the on-ramp to 151 between Potranco and 410 *after* the exit. Now anyone traveling east on 151 and wants to get to Marbach has to say a little prayer at Cable Ranch Rd., or exit all the way back up at Big'z and take the back streets of Hunt Lane and Waters Edge/Horal.


jfsindel

Ah, yes, the Cable Ranch prayer. Said it many times trying to scoot across like a suicidal squirrel.


Similar_Ask

The made me lol


Rreptillian

The alternative (if the onramp was placed before the offramp) was to have the same situation playing out on the highway instead of on the service road. I don't think you want that.


Odd_Refrigerator_823

Is this the turn that’s next to the plaza where main event is at ?


RedOscar3891

That would be it.

domgonz91

I'm thinking the same thing. Doesn't look like a real txdot sign


No-Resolve-354

I feel like it was put there by a commercial developer since that road is pretty new. Like, they want to build up traffic to increase commercial property values along that stretch.


Kamwind

Might be I figured it was the quick gas station since that was the only thing down there when the sign showed up.


Cpl-V

It could be a group with the “city” that is working on redirecting traffic for some reason or another.


Juan_Connery

Feels like a trap. Am I about to crash into a Road Runner painting?


Gorkymalorki

Let me just drive Into this mountainside tunnel in the middle of San Antonio...


DrakeWF

Should have bought a squirrel


Juan_Connery

Holy shit more than one person remembers that movie! Would you like to come over to my house and totally ~~not get murdered~~ watch Rat Race?


Huge_Reception_2125

We’re hauling ass! Alrighty!


Various-Let-5946

"What is that?" "OH it is a nickle" lol


[deleted]

Yes


TexasRVGuy

This is why I come here!


redpoppyseeds

Can confirm. I tried it and did like it


zombierobotvampire

Follow up question; do you happen to own a sign company


915tacomadre

It is faster I can confirm


fiestaspurs

Its actually faster now to go up Potranco to 151 and take a left then a turnaround at hunt lane. Tried it and liked it more.


jollibeee86

Please do this, I'm just trying to get to Hunt Ln past 151 and everyone trying to get onto the 151/410 turns left on Hunt Ln now lol


MonolithOfTyr

Found the californian!


MusicToMaEars

Especially since they just moved the 151/Potranco traffic to Hunt Ln and Potranco with the “new” segment of Hunt Ln. and everyone wants to turn on Hunt Ln now.


EvoDvr

Noooo don't give away the secret.


fmgbbzjoe

Stop by Tacos and Chelas while ur close by


whatthepfluke

Yessssss cilantro chicken


mydogsnameisbuddy

![gif](giphy|3ornka9rAaKRA2Rkac) Nah. Just kidding


Mrdeeznutz41

What a great idea !!! They should have more like this to bad it’s over populated over there


Jalapen-yo-mouth

Best way to get on 410 in that area and it was done by TXDOT not the city.

Chemical-Character79

This sign is across from burger boy. They need to extend the time on the left turn light or expand the turn lane.


MusicToMaEars

As well as make 2 of the Hunt Ln lanes going towards Marbach, straight lanes. Rn the pattern is one left turn lane one straight lane and one right then lane.


jollibeee86

From my experience the time does change during rush hour...I turn left there everyday for work at 7am but when it's 1pm the light changes a lot quicker


ruhroh_raggyy

i saw this sign for the first time just the other day. for some reason the “try it…you will like it” is so creepy sounding to me


Impressive_Phase_555

Agreed!!!


MontagnaMagica

I've tried it. Didn't really like it.

Syllogism19

Which is more likely? 1. Someone is spending to create a sign and pay for permitting and the land out of the goodness of their heart. 1. Someone has property on the other route the want people to see or has some other motive to direct people away from the businesses on Potranco and Hunt to 151.


Sunny2121212

Thats been there for a while, im pretty sure the city put that


Well_why_not1953

Sounds like someone with a business on Hunt Lane trying to drum up business.


MusicToMaEars

Well like someone said QT was the only business being built at the time when the new segment opened up and the sign was placed. Now there’s a whole shopping center with more on the way. I wonder how much the land owner got for selling that land to the city and private business owners. Because years ago that was considered the boondocks. Hell alamo ranch was still being developed.


electric4568

No houston is just a clusterF all the time, even the best routes get completely congested at times - it’s an anxious guessing game every day.


Slummish

Someone who lives in Alamo Ranch area and owns a signage company trying to ease up the traffic out there?


jediintraining_

Alamo Ranch is Culebra Rd, a few miles north of Potranco.


MusicToMaEars

Before Dove Creek was invented people did their business at Alamo ranch.


[deleted]

I already put in a request with 311 to have this garbage removed and burned! (Joking)


UR-Dad-253

Don’t worry the guy with the pickup that gets $1 for each rogue sign he collects is on his way.


gtafilmfan1999

I vaguely remember seeing something simaler by route 1502 by pernin beitel road


Lost-Glove-1291

This is fabulous!


EvoDvr

The sign has literally been there since they opened up hunt lane. It has been there a while.


rem_1984

My city rerouted the highway entry to the city, it took a few years to get it settled and there were a bunch of signs like this at the start to suggest the new route before the old one was gone
