Bus Riders Union of Austin, Texas | El Sindicato de Pasajeros

We Bus Riders know that buses can do anything a train ( be it commuter, heavy, light, or ultra-light) can do with better flexibility at a fraction of the cost. Capital Metro's own study, which can be found on the All Systems Go website shows a circulator using buses costs one-eighth of one using streetcars.
A few other more sensible alternatives are "floating" around town. Check out this one posted on Ben Wears blog: http://www.statesman.com/blogs/content/shared-gen/blogs/austin/traffic/e...
