On June 12, ATP Board Chair Veronica Castro de Barrera joined CapMetro at the ribbon cutting for the new Rapid 800 and 837 bus lines — a Project Connect promise delivered. We're not just talking about public transportation. We're delivering it.

This launch shows that when Austin sets a bold goal, and we work together, we can turn vision into reality. Proud to keep showing up for Austin alongside our partners at CapMetro. Watch the FOX 7 story for more: https://bit.ly/43DWT7e

We're building the light rail so that it can be expanded in the future. That means it will be able to grow as our city grows, making it a vital connector when it opens and long into the future.

Spend less time in traffic and more time in your city. Dedicated rail will make getting around easier and more reliable.



Dedicated rail will deliver faster, more predictable trips through the city’s busiest corridors any time of day.

Q: Who will ride Austin's light rail?

A: All Austinites. It’s not just for people who live near a station. Austin’s light rail is being intentionally designed to connect to other modes of transit too — including the commuter train line, buses, bicycles, and even cars through park-and-ride options at key stations. So whether you live right Downtown or one of Austin’s suburbs, it will be a fast and affordable way to get to places and events in and around the heart of the city.

We’ve officially started preconstruction with our new construction partners. 👷 This is one of the final steps before we begin building. Teams from our local construction partners have begun surveying and inspecting the ground where we will build, using LIDAR, drones, and boring equipment. This early work will help keep the project on track and avoid costly delays.

Q: Will Austin's Light Rail help with traffic?

A: With great growth, comes great traffic. The light rail will not wave a magic wand and fix all our traffic problems. But because it doesn’t have to sit in traffic like a bus or a car, it will help reduce travel times to key destinations in the heart of the city. That means you’ll be able to cross the the river at 5 p.m. again!
