The City of Houston is Intentionally Delaying Your METRORail Ride
Without public input or notification, the city recently removed signal priority for the Red Line in Downtown and Midtown.
Trains now stop every red light on Main Street between the Wheeler Transit Center and UHD.
It is faster to walk through downtown than to take METRORail.
A METRO light rail operator shared these details:
the city of Houston changed the traffic signals on September 20th
METRO told the city three months ago not to do it
It’s bad for employee safety
Restore Signal Priority Now
Contact the Mayor and City Council to demand signal priority be restored now.
Join other Houstonians and sign up to speak at City Council on October 28th at 5:30 pm.
Let METRO know signal priority must be restored.
Sign the petition from LINK Houston to demand signal priority be restored.
