We're full of joy seeing so many projects getting @usdot funding across the country... especially the ones in our region!
We strongly believe in the importance of investing in our Nation's #transportation #infrastructure and #mobility.
🚇 Our friends at @METROHouston developed a great mobile app to help you get around this weekend. It’s an all-in-one toolkit with everything you need to ride METRO bus, rail and METRORapid services.

Did you know a freight #railroad helps build all these things?
We're enjoying these infographics that our TAG Mobility Partner @UnionPacific is sharing!

🚂 👷 It's great to see new #infrastructure in Texas!
The addition of a second bridge will 2X cross-border #rail container capacity in the Laredo-Nuevo Laredo region. The new bridge will allow a 24/7 interchange between Mexico and the U.S. by rail.

HOV lanes on #Houston freeways will soon be open 7 days a week after a successful weekend @METROHouston pilot program that launched over the summer.

We recently celebrated the career of a local #transportation champion! After 37 years, Quincy Allen has decided to end his chapter with @TxDOT.
He served our region as the @TxDOTHouston District Engineer and ended by overseeing all 25 TxDOT districts in Texas. Thank you!🥳
🚅 The @USDOT announced grants to modernize passenger rail service in eight states.
🤠 Although Texas is not one of those states, TAG looks forward to increased funding for a modern high-quality passenger rail for our region to enjoy as well.

🚌 ⚡ We recently celebrated @METROHouston receiving $21.6 Million for electric busses! Did you know that it was part of a $1.6 Billion @FTA_DOT grant program?
“We're helping communities across America purchase more than 1,800 new buses" @SecretaryPete

Meeting the needs of #cyclists, pedestrians and #masstransit users, while increasing safety and reducing pollution, are among the priorities for the city’s #transportation planners.
Great to hear from Houston's Chief Transportation Planner, @planman72

By pushing automakers to bring their supply chains to the US, the administration believes it can make #EV ⚡🚗 more mainstream and accelerate toward an ambitious goal: to have 50% of all new car sales be for electric models by 2030, up from only 3% today.

🔌 Through the eMobility Microgrant Initiative, @EvolveHoustonTX will invest in local community-led efforts focused on increasing access to all forms of electric #mobility and #EV charging stations.
We're glad to see investments in our region's mobility!
