What is Transit Plan 2035?
Transit Plan 2035 builds on CapMetro’s earlier efforts and aligns with other local and regional projects to create a transit system that meets the needs of the growing community in Central Texas. The plan will cover the whole Central Texas region and include our current bus and train system and Project Connect’s new transit projects. Transit Plan 2035 will give step-by-step recommendations for CapMetro’s future plans.
Transit Plan 2035 activities include:
- Looking at current services to find and fix gaps, especially in areas that need more public transportation.
- Learning how people travel now and in the future.
- Working with other organizations to share information on projects.
- Making different CapMetro services work together better, including CapMetro Rail, CapMetro Bus, CapMetro Bikeshare, CapMetro Access Paratransit, and CapMetro Pickup services.
- Making it easier for people to get around now and in the future.
