I'm originally from Richardson, but have moved to the Houston area (3 years ago) and I go back once a month. Yes...narrow one lane construction. The worst part is just between the Woodlands and Conroe. There really isn't a better way to go.
Ok, my positive thoughts are with you...be awake, keep your eyes on the road and both hands on the wheel, keep your distance from other drivers, drive the posted speed limit. Pay attention to the other drivers and do not fear the barriers...sounds weird, but do not give them the power to scare you and you'll be fine!
Oh, when I moved, I was driving a moving van, pulling my car...just my son, my dog, cat and me. We drove through those barriers without a care in the world. Just think...if those huge 18-wheelers can do it, you certainly can!
Enjoy your time in H-Town! (Sorry if I sound like a Mom!)

I'm sure you're bound to pass construction somewhere on that interstate. I drove it all the way to Galveston in January and hit about 15 different construction zones between Dallas and Galveston.
You say you're leaving Friday, is that Friday night or Friday during the day? If it's at night, chances are greater that the construction zones will be "closed" so to speak, as in no unnecessary lane closures, unless lanes are actually missing. If you leave in the afternoon, you'll hit traffic which means you'll be going slow through those zones anyway.

I hope she is in North Houston. I go about 10 times a yr cause of work and it has a ton of traffic. I believe there is stiil construction near Corsicanna and maybe Woodlawn area. I hope u have fun w/ the gf and humility.
