City Present Urban Rail Alternatives Report

Posted on June 24, 2010

On June 24, the Austin Transportation Department and the ASMP team presented the findings of their Urban Rail Alternatives Evaluation to the Austin City Council. This represents the first phase of an ongoing planning effort to explore Austin's options for a rail system serving key urban destinations and adding connections to the regional transit and mobility network.

More information on the Urban Rail project can be found at our Urban Rail resources page.

"America’s transportation needs have changed dramatically since construction of the coast-to-coast Interstate Highway System more than a half-century ago. The new focus: cleaner, more affordable transportation options. Multi-modal transit options that include bus, light rail and commuter rail in an integrated transportation system are now recognized as critical to long-range planning in many regions and cities."
