火车

There’s more to building a successful light-rail system than laying track and putting up stations. That’s why 火车 made a commitment to not only serve and connect 休斯顿 communities, but also to maintain their culture and integrity. 火车 has added more than 17 miles of new sidewalks and 45 miles of 12-foot traffic lanes. The expanded light-rail system that now runs nearly 23 miles is an essential element of the city’s plans to meet the transportation and environmental challenges of today and tomorrow, easing our growing traffic congestion and improving air quality.
