Interstate highways 20 and 30 run east-west through the northern and southern parts of the city. Texas State Highways 303 (named Pioneer Parkway) and 180 (Main Street) also run east-west in the northern and central portions of the city.

S.H. 360 runs for a few hundred feet in the extreme northwestern portion of city; most of the highway runs just east of the city limits in Arlington.

S.H. 161, named the President George Bush Tollway, runs north-south through western Grand Prairie. The main lanes were opened in late 2012 with frontage roads open since 2010. Portions of the highway located north of SH 180 are depressed while the portion south of SH 180 runs at-grade then becomes elevated. Frontage roads remain at-grade throughout. The frontage road intersection at Main Street will open sometime in 2013.[1]

Belt Line Road, labeled as FM 1382, begins at SH 180, crosses I-20, and heads into Cedar Hill.

There is presently no public transportation in Grand Prairie, as the city is not a member of DART. The city declined membership in 1984.
