LINK Houston

LINK Houston LINK Houston advocates for a robust and equitable transportation network. These deeply affordable options must be as viable as owning a personal vehicle.

Transportation– how we get where we need to go – should not be a barrier to accessing jobs, education, healthcare, shopping, or anything else we need in our lives. People should be able to reach such opportunities safely and with dignity by walking, rolling, biking, and riding transit.

In 2019, you voted for investment in better transit service, including dedicated bus rapid transit (BRT) lanes along Gulfton street. In 2021, in response to neighborhood demand, METRO created the 309/310 circulator and ridership has only gone up, but METRO has been quiet about the BRT until now.

In partnership with Commissioner Briones, METRO and Harris County Precinct 4 will hold a public meeting this Tuesday, June 30 to provide an update on Gulfton transportation projects - and most importantly - to hear from you.

FIFA is here and Houston METRO will be running more service than ever. The new service starts June 7 but you can start planning your trip today! There's no better time to try it out. Check out their increased service on local buses, park & ride, and the rail.

We took The Guardian team on a transit tour of Houston earlier this spring through Downtown, Gulfton, and Northwest Houston to show them what works, what needs improvement, and what is on the way during the FIFA World Cup.

Houston METRO will have the most frequency in its history during the five weeks where Houston will be on the international stage. While that is great for those traveling in, it is also the perfect opportunity for Houstonians to try out the expanded regional express services offered through the Park and Ride system, the more frequent local bus to their favorite shows and restaurants, and the all day rail service being offered to the FIFA Fan Fest and stadium.

If you're already a daily rider these improvements provide much needed reliability to your schedule and if you are a new rider the expanded service being offered makes it the best time to try it out.

Our request to you is give METRO a try this summer. Plan a trip to a concert, a new restaurant, or simply just to work and let us know your thoughts. We want to hear from you!

The FIFA World Cup is bringing access to Houston at a level unseen before. Main St. will be a pedestrian promenade and for 5 weeks METRO will deliver world class service, regional express routes into downtown, all with expanded hours. This webinar aims to walk us through how to make it last. We've brought together an expert panel of urbanism professionals to guide us through creating lasting change after FIFA.

Transportation accounts for 47% of carbon emissions in Houston - roughly 19 million metric tons annually. Riding public transit can reduce your carbon footprint by 55%. This Earth Day we celebrate public transit and the freedom and dignity that clean transportation offers.

Better for the environment. Better on your bank account. Riding METRO moves us forward in the right direction.
