re: Question for Aggies regarding the commute to CS tomorrow....

I used to make the trip through Tomball to 105 weekly while in college (North Houston to College Station).

On a charter bus the 'back roads' could be hard to maneuver, they were fun to maneuver in a sports car but there are some pretty ugly turns to make going through magnolia on the way to Plantersville (105).

Both the Conroe and Tomball converge on the 105 route through Plantersville to highway 6. The Conroe route would be the less hazardous to a Charter Bus.

That being said, I don't know how much time you'll save. 105 (and the roads to 105 through Tomball/Magnolia) are 2-lane roads with stop-lights at Plantersvilled and then obviously at the junction to Highway 6.

Plenty of people seem to know the route these days as Magnolia and Conroe have expanded considerably in the last decade. So it could be well crowded.

I'd say it's a gamble at best, especially in a charter.
