@porkingclaus We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. You may also go to your local H.E.B. to pickup a UMO Reloadable Fare card. ^J.T.

@CapMetroATX This is the worst torture ever. I always pay by cash and I don't have the slightest idea how to do this. You really think I have the free time to go the transit store halfway across the city?

It's time for another match safety tip! ⏰ Watch the video as you get set for @AustinFC at @Q2Stadium. Service info: capmetro.org/Q2 Safety at CapMetro: capmetro.org/safety

This update is to aid in adherence to our code of conduct and will assist with safety improvements for customers and frontline staff, support fare compliance, create a more consistent boarding experience and give operators better visibility and control. Yes, this update applies to Rapid service. ^HH

@CapMetroATX Why in the world would y’all get rid of all-door boarding? Surely you know that it speeds up the boarding process and reduces dwell times? And, having a second scanner at the back door is helpful when the front door scanner is broken. Will this change apply to MetroRapid lines?

The Transit Store is closing early today, and we expect to reopen tomorrow. Please call the Go Line if you need assistance: 512-474-1200.

We're preserving history while investing in our future. CapMetro has begun reassembling a more than 100-year-old historic bridge from our track over Walnut Creek to Springdale and Bolm Rd. This allows us to preserve the bridge and complete essential track work while improving visibility for our customers and the community. The relocation is funded by a Federal Railroad Administration CRISI grant and won't affect CapMetro service or future Mokan Trail plans.
