Now Boarding the ATP: The
Austin Transit Partnership this week met for its first board meeting to elect officers, approve bylaws, and pass an interim budget. As the governing body of the agency created to build out
Project Connect, the board oversees funding, designing, and implementing the mass transit overhaul.
First the Pork Chop, Then Mobility: The
Austin Transportation Department began construction this week on improvements at the intersection of
North Lamar and
Morrow, which include removing the
pork chop median. The decades-old median has prevented both westbound Morrow traffic from driving across Lamar and northbound Lamar traffic from making left turns onto Morrow.
