Austin wants to know what you think about Red Line Trail
Tuesday, August 15, 2023 by Eric Webb
Here’s your opportunity to help shape a piece of Austin transit: The city is looking for community feedback on its Red Line Trail project. A virtual open house is available in English and Spanish through Aug. 31, and the city has opened up an online survey. There also will be two in-person events where people can offer their thoughts to the project team: 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. Saturday at Balcones District Park and 5:30 to 7 p.m. Aug. 30 at Kramer Station.
The 1.7-mile urban trail would connect Northern Walnut Creek Trail to Braker Lane, as well as connect to Capital Metro’s McKalla and Broadmoor stations. “The project is in the design phase. At this stage, the project team is determining the trail route, construction cost, and key trail features while the community has a chance to weigh in,” according to a news release.
