TxDOT agrees: Our roads are full, our cities are growing, and we need more options. Last session, I filed a bill to repeal the state’s ban on high speed rail and start building the modern transit system Texans deserve. It’s time to think big, plan ahead, and connect Texas.

Most of Route 30 in Austin is on track to be upgraded from every 30 min to every 15 minute service! The newish mixed use district at the Grove will finally have all day frequent service to the rest of Austin

Public transit is about more than buses and trains β€” it’s about connecting our community. Austinites deserve to get to work, school, or the doctor without unnecessary obstacles or crushing costs. I will continue to fight for a transit system that brings us together.

Many of the most desirable cities in the world have something in common β€” skipping the traffic, congestion and gas prices isn’t just an option, it’s a no brainer. That vision doesn’t happen by accident. Transit Forward was proud to speak in support of a Week Without Driving
