According to Gov. Abbott's office, the site will be open seven days a week, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The site will boast eight drive-thru lanes and four walk-up lanes. No appointment is required. People may show up at their convenience and will be walked through the process of registering online.
The inside of your mouth will be swabbed, instead of your nose, after many people expressed anxiety about the invasive nasal test.

Officials at the test site told ABC13, results can be expected between 72 and 96 hours. Some people have gotten them as soon as 48 hours after getting tested.
Spanish-speaking staff will be on site, and no healthcare provider will be required for test administration.
