Getting around
Getting around Austin & COTA
You're based in Austin, the track is out of town
The hotel sits in the city and the flights land at Austin-Bergstrom, so COTA is a run south-east on race day.
South Congress is the free evening
SoCo across the river has the independent kitchens and rooftops, Rainey Street the cocktail strip, East Sixth the natural-wine scene.
COTA closes to rideshare on race weekend
Uber and Lyft drop and collect only at the dedicated lot with a tram to the gates, and the Sunday exodus locks the highways out.
