I don't see why Austin hasn't planned ahead and figured out a comprehensive system before putting it to vote. Something like 3 light rail lines (with funding for 1) and 2 commuter lines built out over the next 30 years.
THIS! Austin needs to sell the full build out. Not a single line. And the highland route has not shot at passing muster with voters.
