Current Projects
Addicks Park & Ride
METRO is considering redevelopment of the Addicks Park & Ride (14230 Katy Freeway) into something more than just a hub for great transit service.
Missouri City Park & Ride
We're constructing a new facility to accommodate increased demand. The new location will provide greater accessibility and convenience for the region.
Tidwell Transit-Oriented Development Plan
We've developed an action plan to increase mobility and improve connectivity at and around the Tidwell Transit Center through transit-oriented development (TOD).
In Service
Gulfton Circulator
The first circulator route is the Gulfton Circulator (routes 309 and 310). The route begins and ends at Westpark / Lower Uptown Transit Center connecting the Gulfton community to Hillcroft Transit Center. The route pattern was unanimously approved by the Gulfton Super Neighborhood Council. It also satisfies requests from riders on other bus routes.
