Local and Express bus service is the core of Capital Metro’s public transit system. We are building new Park & Ride locations to provide you with more convenient access to service. We’re upgrading bus stops across our service area with new shelters, benches, signs, maps and other amenities.

Our routes are expanding in the fastest growing areas of your community. A mix of downtown, crosstown and feeder services will get you where you need to go. As an added convenience, we are increasing local bus service to provide you frequent-stop access.

Improved alignment of routes will enhance bus and rail connections for Express and local bus service.

• Trips were added to Route 5 Woodrow/South Fifth, 103 Manchaca Flyer and the 935 Tech Ridge Express to relieve crowded buses and provide more travel options.
• Express ridership increased 25 percent in FY 2008.
• Capital Metro purchased a 45-foot Express bus in June 2008 to help address the dramatic increase in ridership from Park & Rides.

• Capital Metro is currently working on plans to increase local and Express service in South Austin, Oak Hill and Manor in the near future.
