Is this a Texas state highway or a U.S. highway? --BaronLarf 14:44, August 4, 2005 (UTC)

Texas. And I've moved the article to reflect this and for consistency with other Texas State Highway articles. There is some confusion though with SH 161, which redirects here, but probably shouldn't, since (at least, currently), it does its own thing between 635 and 183.

OK, scratch all that. I think I've figured it out now. Turnpike name is: President George Bush Turnpike. SH 190 is the frontage roads from 635 to 78. SH 161 is the frontage roads from 635 to 183. And Google Maps needs to update because they haven't updated the Turnpike to 183. Brain thinking one thing, maps saying another, article says a third. I think I've straightened it out though.

Isn't 161 actually on the freeway southwest of Belt Line Road? Or has that changed? --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 08:42, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Given that the designation file ends 161 at Belt Line Road, who maintains the frontage roads between Belt Line and 635? These frontage roads used to be part of the mainline of 161. --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 12:41, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

There aren't any frontage roads between 635 and Beltline. The frontage roads leave the freeway at the 635 interchange and become Valley View Lane. --Holderca1 15:36, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

I had considered adding, but I'm too tired: there's a significant amount of new information on the grand prairie portion of the project here: [1] I might work on it tomorrow. drumguy8800 C T 08:30, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
