Traffic congestion in Austin costs everyone time and money, diminishes our quality of life, and continues to increase as Central Texas grows.
Capital Metro, the City of Austin, CAMPO, the Lone Star Rail District, and other partners are working together to improve long-term mobility and accessibility, support local and regional growth objectives, and meet community needs by helping families:
–          Gain more transportation options
–          Have better access to affordable housing
–          Connect to employment and education centers
–          Create and sustain vibrant local communities
