Aquarena Springs & Sessom Intersection

A Bend Toward Aquarena Springs

The intersection of Aquarena Springs Drive and Sessom Drive sits on the northern edge of San Marcos, Texas, along the road that curves toward the historic Aquarena Springs resurgence and the San Marcos River headwaters. Sessom Drive links the crossing to Texas State University's campus just to the south.

Built for Safe Crossings

A striped crosswalk and a low wooden guardrail line the outside of the curve, while reflective yellow markers guide drivers safely through the bend. Mature shade trees and a stone entry wall frame the roadside, giving the approach a distinctly leafy, residential character.

Continuous Traffic Monitoring

Part of the San Marcos traffic camera network, this fixed view tracks vehicle flow through the curve around the clock, helping commuters and city planners keep an eye on one of the routes feeding traffic toward the university and the springs.

Gateway to a Hill Country College Town

San Marcos sits midway between Austin and San Antonio, built around a spring-fed river and Texas State University. This corner, just steps from the springs that gave the city its name, captures the everyday rhythm of a growing Hill Country community.
