As San Antonio has grown, the answer to our transit problems has been more roads.
That’s not good enough anymore. We need rail transit.

Check out our new report that outlines SART's official position on how San Antonio and Austin should proceed with pursuing regional rail between our cities.
We know that there are numerous challenges and we only have to look to our neighbors in Austin to see that it is easy for rail projects to become hamstrung by rapidly ballooning costs, political and legal challenges, and prolonged timeframes.
The Lone Star Rail – a proposed regional rail system connecting San Antonio and Austin – faces the same political, logistical and financial challenges that have stymied other rail projects in the region in the past. This proposal seeks to chart a path that is cost effective, politically sound, rapid to implement and gives a depth of service not previously seen in the region.
