Yes Texas does have this but it is being successfully challenged by the Corpus Christi city council and resort owners and as a result 7200ft of beach betweem Packery Channel and Padre Balli County Park on north Padre Island will be prohibited to vehicular access.
The only thing standing between this actually being implemented is the TOBA and lot of grassroots organizations.
Once the gov. and special interest groups get their foot in the door its the beginning of the end.After vehicular access is denied pedestrian prohibition will eventually follow.
