Project Connect is all in
Project Connect is a comprehensive transit system expansion that will help transform Austin into one of the most sustainable, inclusive and innovative regions in the country.
All In for Equity and Opportunity
A truly comprehensive transit system can connect people to opportunities. Project Connect will help create thousands of good local jobs, and provide more access to healthcare, education, employment, essential services, entertainment and will also create and maintain more affordable places to live. It’s designed to help us all move toward a future without limits.
All In for Environment and Sustainability
There is a shared passion in our community for the environment. That’s why a commitment to environment and sustainable practices are core to Project Connect. We envision a zero emission fleet, and we will learn into the challenge to conserve and protect natural resources in the decisions we make.
All In for Innovation and Technology
Technology and innovation inspire much of who we are as a region. Project Connect will embrace that spirit, making transportation smarter, more efficient, enjoyable and easier to use.

The Project Connect program includes a variety of projects ranging from rail, bus, facilities and technology.
