From groundbreaking in 2021 to full @CapMetroATX Rapid service this week โ this moment belongs to East Austin. Faster buses, new Park & Rides, more ways to connect to jobs, school and everything in between. Can't wait to celebrate with our community.

Proud to see work begin on reassembling this 100 year-old historic bridge over Walnut Creek. Essential track work. Better visibility. And the Mokan Trail stays on track too.
Grateful for the @USDOT FRA CRISI grant making it possible. ๐

We're preserving history while investing in our future.
CapMetro has begun reassembling a more than 100-year-old historic bridge from our track over Walnut Creek to Springdale and Bolm Rd.
This allows us to preserve the bridge and complete essential track work while improving visibility for our customers and the community.
The relocation is funded by a Federal Railroad Administration CRISI grant and won't affect CapMetro service or future Mokan Trail plans.
