The creation of a commuter light rail on the I-35 corridor connecting San Antonio to Austin and the cities in between. We advocate for a cessation of plans to expand I-35 and instead divert those funds in purchase of the San Antonio-Austin rail corridor and the eventual creation of high-speed rail connections.

The construction of elevated street crossings throughout the urban space. No urban traffic should ever have to stop for a train to pass. We also advocate for rail as a safer means of transit than private vehicle.
The development of an effective intra-city rail system designed not only for tourists but also commuters, students, and residents.
We want San Antonio to become a regional hub for rail transit. Amtrak should increase its westbound Texas Eagle trains, and all Sunset Limited trains to daily service. It should restore direct connection between San Antonio and Oklahoma City, and eventually Wichita, via an expanded Heartland Flyer. The Sunset Limited should be restored to its previous route, giving San Antonians direct rail links to Mobile, Jacksonville, and Orlando.
Amtrak should create regional weekend excursion rail connections to Marfa, TX, Big Bend National Park (via Alpine, TX), San Marcos, and other appropriate destinations. Locally, we have the Missions Express would link downtown, the San Antonio Missions National Park, the Riverwalk Mission Reach, and the San Antonio Railroad Heritage Museum in Elmendorf.
High speed rail—starting with the Texas Triangle. More regional lines, such as our proposed such as our San Antonio to Austin Staged Approach. Commuter rail to suburbs around San Antonio such as Boerne, New Braunfels, and Elemendorf. We are excited for new ideas that push the boundaries of rail in our city and do not limit our vision of the future to the above. These are the first steps.
