Galveston Rail

A study released today indicates that a commuter rail line from Galveston to Houston would cost around $450 million dollars to implement, using existing routes and rails with upgrades. A Two lane bus route for that corridor would cost $2.2 billion. The rail would relieve the traffic on the freeway and reduce emissions significantly. The proposal will be given to political entities beginning today. It seems a no brainer to me.

That is why I am worried as it is given to the politicians!
