Light Rail In Austin: We Have A Route
Earlier this summer, a route was chosen for Austin's first-ever light rail system. It will start at 38th Street, run down Guadalupe Street, cross Lady Bird Lake at Trinity Street and then split, running south along South Congress (ending at Oltorf) and running east along Riverside Drive (ending at Yellow Jacket Lane). But why was this route chosen?
To answer that question, Austin Common Radio Hour host Amy Stansbury sits down with Lindsay Wood (Austin Transit Partnership) and Awais Azhar (chair of the Project Connect Community Advisory Committee).
