25-mile University Corridor, set for construction next year, could eventually receive...
The line, when built, will stretch more than 25 miles from the Tidwell Transit Center to the area around the University of Houston, then westward through Midtown, Greenway Plaza, south of Uptown and eventually to Westchase. Buses will have their own dedicated lanes, either by taking existing lanes from local streets such as Lockwood and Richmond, or along its own route parallel to Westpark Drive.
Metro’s board is set to consider, possibly later this month, the preferred route for the dedicated lanes. "If we were to be at-grade, this would no longer be a rapid project,” said Yuhayna Mahmud, project manager for the University Corridor.Stopped trains still block East End streets. A federal bill could lead to fines for railroads.
