A rail station at Austin FC s Q2 Stadium is a go after Capital Metro s board approved a financial agreement Monday that calls for the Major League Soccer team to help pay for its construction and maintenance.
CapMetro s board approved a resolution to finalize the agreement with Austin Stadco LLC, the Austin FC subsidiary that supervised the construction of Q2 Stadium.
Austin FC will pay $640,000 up front for the construction of a rail station and bus stops at Q2 Stadium. The team will then pay $3 million over the following 15 years to CapMetro. Payments for the rail station will start either when construction begins or on March 1, 2022, according to the agreement.
