corridor in central and south Texas.
Description: The Lone Star
Rail District (LSRD), in partnership with the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) and TxDOT, is proposing a regional passenger rail
service connecting communities along the I-35 corridor between the
metropolitan areas of Austin and San Antonio. As envisioned, the Lone
Star Regional Rail Project would span approximately 120 miles across
Williamson, Travis, Bastrop, Hays, Caldwell, Comal, Guadalupe and Bexar
counties. FHWA and TxDOT welcome all comments from interested
individuals, organizations, or businesses regarding alternative
alignments and station locations, as well as any social, economic, or
environmental impacts related to the Lone Star Regional Rail Project.
