Default best way to get to MTI?

i'll be coming from east houston, straight down I-10 from beaumont.

i was looking at i-10 to beltway 8 then to westheimer then to dairy ashford then to oxford park. it looks like there is some toll roads along beltway 8 at the westheimer exit and im too poor to take them, especially after i LEAVE MTI lol

what about i-10 to highway 6 to westheimier to dairy ashford to oxford park?

is it very had to stay on i-10 right thru the heart of houston? areas i should avoid gimmie some advice!!

From I-10 you can exit Dairyashford, turn left from I-10 to head south on dairyashford. Take Dairyashford down past Westheimer and you'll see an auto zone on your left, turn left on the road that goes by autozone, dairyashford will merge from 3 lanes to two, so you'll see the turn for oxford park. You'll also see a school on your left as you come down dairyshford after you pass Westheimer and the Randalls, Oxford park is the road between the school and the autozone. If you get to Richmond you went to far, U turn, its inbetween richmond and westheimer. Just take I-10 straight down and exit dairyashford, after you pass the Beltway on I-10, you'll go past wilcrest, kirkwood, then after kirkwood it's dairyashford. If you go past Eldrige you went to far, turn back around, you wnat the Dairyshford exit. I live about 2 minutes from MTI, and when I come home from school I take 45 to I-10, so I sorta know the directions

Its a good bit down Westheimer after you turn right, Galeria is at 610 and westheimer, its about a 15-25 minute drive depending on traffic. But from there, if you enjoy sitting in traffic, you could go left on 610 headed north and take 610 up to I-10, the exit for I-10 from 610 will be on your right side.

People complained about bad customer service in the past from certain individuals. Jayson took care of it, prooving they actually listen to what customers have to say. Dave Coates working there is also proof of that as well.
