Lady Bird Lake Traffic Pattern

See the map below for more details on bridge passage, points of caution, and more. In general the east-bound traffic should stay on the south side, the west-bound traffic should stay on the north side. For a safe and enjoyable rowing experience on Lady Bird Lake, it’s essential to follow the designated traffic patterns. Be mindful of other watercraft, including kayaks and paddleboards, and maintain a safe distance. The central channel is reserved for faster-moving boats and should be crossed with caution. Adhering to these guidelines ensures a smooth flow of traffic and enhances safety for everyone on the water.
