1 Improvements
2 Enhancements Short-term improvements to keep Austin moving. Investments Long-term projects to support our future. Mobility Hubs MetroRapid MetroRail Commuters Connectors Circulators Project Connect Project Connect is the Central Texas high-capacity transit plan that will create real, tangible transit projects that offer an alternative to mindnumbing traffic congestion. It s not about a single train or bus route, but a robust transit system that improves travel into, out of and around Central Austin from the surrounding region. It will provide options that build upon one another and create a system to move more people, more quickly. The end result will connect residents, businesses, schools, services, and shopping through a high-capacity transit network. Capital Metro operates service in order to provide a limited stop service between central Austin and regional communities such as Leander, Round Rock and Manor. Capital Metro currently has 8 routes that utilize highway and tollways in order to provide travel time savings to riders. Many riders access the system by driving to park & rides near regional highways which helps to get cars off the road in the areas with the highest congestion. In order to expand the system, partnerships will need to be created with communities outside of the Capital Metro service area by bringing them into the service area or through the use of transit development plans or coordination with other transportation providers such as CARTS. Key Terms Park & Ride Basic facilities typically designed for transferring from cars to transit
3 Corridor Introduction How Connects the Region The Austin region is growing tremendously and that growth isn t always within the boundaries of the City of Austin. Capital Metro connects communities surrounding Austin through its service that provides a direct link between regional suburbs to the urban core of Austin and the highest concentration of jobs. Capital Metro currently provides a variety of routes to communities to the Northwest of Austin and the northern extent of Austin all of which lie within the Capital Metro service area. There are many other areas of the region that would like to have that same direct connection, but are located outside of Capital Metro s service area. Through the use of partnerships with other agencies and surrounding communities, Capital Metro can expand the reach of their service to all corners of the region including: Hutto, Georgetown, Bastrop, Lockhart, Buda and Oak Hill. METROEXPRESS COST ESTIMATES Low Investment: 5th/6th Priority Lanes to Express Lanes Enhancement Costs: Regional Enhancement Costs: High Investment: $200,000 $900,000 $15,650,000 $38,600,000 TOTAL ESTIMATED COST: $15,850,000 $39,500,000 To improve the speed and reliability of, Capital Metro coordinates with CTRMA to open express lanes and toll roads to buses in order to zip by traffic. By partnering with the City of Austin, enhancements to 5th/6th St and Cesar Chavez between the Mopac and Republic Square can further improve speed by cutting further through downtown traffic. Through the use of these partnerships and enhancements to existing roadways, Capital Metro can provide a service that creates an alternative to driving in traffic that is fast, reliable and near you. 1

5 Proposed Improvements North: Round Rock & Georgetown Project Overview SITE Proposed PLAN Express AND CONCEPT Route The North market consists mainly of N MoPac north of 183, I-35 from SH 45 to Georgetown, and SH 45 from N MoPac to I-35. Much of this market is just beginning to be served by CapMetro through partnerships with the Cities of Round Rock and Georgetown. Currently, 1 route operates in this market serving 2 park & rides at Round Rock Transit Center and Howard Station. There is potential to extend Express service further north from its current endpoint in Round Rock all the way to Georgetown as the partnership grows.
