@CWCabelloHavrda I was at the joint AAMPO-CAMPO meeting last year when @CWCabelloHavrda shook the room with her suggestion that our MPOs should be focusing on rail, not just highway expansion. Her boldness is changing minds about transportation in our region, and we are so grateful for her.🚆🚄🚅

Shout out to @CWCabelloHavrda for being an outspoken advocate for passenger rail between San Antonio and Austin! We are so happy that she is one of San Antonio's MPO chairs. Read her new op-ed below: https://t.co/9dgcyuxVt9

@CWCabelloHavrda "We have momentum; our ideas and actions are gaining traction. But this pivotal moment requires political will and effective governance. Grand plans are plentiful, but without action, they will remain lofty visions."

[Melissa Cabello Havrda @melissaforsa]

@RestartLSRD There’s growing momentum, we’re moving forward, rail is right for San Antonio-Austin!

"The Texas triangle of Dallas, Houston and San Antonio is among the promising routes...the Fortress Investment Group co-chair and chief executive officer said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s Wall Street Week with David Westin."

[Restart Lone Star Rail District @RestartLSRD]

The Austin and San Antonio areas are already intimately connected. Fast, frequent, and reliable passenger rail is the perfect solution to bring our communities closer together. Thank you @AndyBrownATX for your leadership and passion for making our region an even better place.

[Restart Lone Star Rail District @RestartLSRD]

Had an amazing time at the Travis County State of the County Address last night! @AndyBrownATX spoke enthusiastically about working with Bexar County Judge @JudgePeterSakai to bring quality passenger rail to the emerging Austin-San Antonio megaregion.

[Restart Lone Star Rail District @RestartLSRD]

Judge Brown also announced the creation of the first ever state-wide Texas Passenger Rail Advisory Committee (TPRAC), made up of a variety of professionals, elected officials, and advocates who want to see our state better connected. More to come on this!

[Melissa Cabello Havrda @melissaforsa]

San Antonio/Austin are poised to become the next mega region. Co-chaired AAMPO/CAMPO mtg where I sparked discussion on rail bet. SATX & ATX. Thank you to my AAMPO/CAMPO colleagues for their collaboration & vision for the future of our cities & region. #AccelerateSA #megaregion

[Travis County Judge Andy Brown @TravisCoJudge]

Our partnership with the Spurs and Bexar County not only celebrates basketball, but bolsters our commitment to improving passenger rail so we can watch our favorite pro basketball team play more often no matter which county we live in.
