Georgian Acres gets a mobility hub
Tuesday, November 15, 2022 by Tai Moses
In what used to be considered a transit desert, residents of North Austin’s Georgian Acres neighborhood now have their pick of options to get around town. Thanks to a partnership between the city, UT and the nonprofit Jail to Jobs, a new mobility hub on East Wonsley Drive offers residents a fleet of e-scooters and circulator buses operated by staff at Jail to Jobs. Benches at the hub are supplied with solar-powered charging pads so people can charge their devices while they wait.
