METRO celebrated the completion of 2,500 universally accessible bus stops early in May, marking a huge milestone for transportation equality.
This isn’t a small project! We’re talking about more than $130 million invested to help revamp these bus stops.“And the interesting part of this, Anavid, is that this is encompassing the entire city, and METRO has divided the area into six zones, and each zone is being taken care of,” Ricky Gonzalez, of Lockwood, Andrews & Newman Incorporated.
METRO’s commitment to invest more than $135 million — including $30 million from the Houston-Galveston Area Council — in a more accessible future that ensures all 9,000 of its bus stops meet or exceed ADA requirements by 2024.Bus stop enhancements like larger bus pads, improved sidewalks and wheelchair ramps improve safety and comfort whether you walk, ride or roll.
