Improving the efficiency and effectiveness of Arlington’s transportation connections within and beyond our borders is critical, because of our central location in the region. We know that we need to be connected to the rest of North Texas through regional transportation partnerships for today and for tomorrow such as high- speed rail opportunities. This budget contains $350,000 in funding for the first year of a two-year pilot project jointly developed with stakeholders to connect people from Downtown/College Park Center to the CentrePort commuter rail station, near the D/FW International Airport. Stakeholders will provide at least one-half of the funding prior.
