3/4 mile to 130 and 45. Toll 45 is sort of an Austin bypass route, but Toll 130 is part of a larger tollway that goes from Austin, eventually connecting to I-10 along the US-183 corridor, making for a faster route than I-35 for vehicles headed from San Antonio to Austin

Left lane for 45/130 North towards Georgetown, which is where 130 ends north of Austin

Turn right for Toll 45 west towards I-35.Stay straight and turn left for Toll 45/130 north towards Georgetown

Location:  US-183 and Toll 45, Mustang Ridge

Turn left here for 45/130

Location: Toll 45 and Toll 130, Mustang Ridge

Turn left for Toll 45 and 130 north. 130 south doesn’t exist yet, but the interchange is very clearly under construction. It will eventually follow the same corridor as US-183 down to Lockhart, and then take a new road southwest of there. It appears that when that happens, US-183 will be the designation given to the frontage roads while 130 takes the mainline, since US highways can’t be tolled.
