The Transit Working Group agreed that the City of Austin, Capital Metro, and CAMPO should move forward with the engineering and environmental reviews needed for a “spine” of Urban Rail that connects from Airport to Airport (connecting Mueller Redevelopment, University of Texas, the state complex, Downtown, and East Riverside to the Austin Bergstrum Airport). Over the next month the group will probably hear additional information on potential financing strategies, but members agreed that many of their more technical questions would require more complete engineering, design, and environmental review.
