METRORail

A fast and convenient way to travel quickly and cost-effectively across many of the urban areas of Houston, the METRORail light rail line began operation in 2004 with the 13-mile north-south Red Line. Ranking as the second most traveled light rail system in the southern United States and the 12th in the entire country, the METRORail Red Line was expanded in 2013, extending its service northward to the Northline Transit Center. In 2015, two new lines (the 3.3-mile Green Line and 6.6-mile Purple Line) were opened with transfer stations available in the Houston Theater District. Future plans include two additional lines as of yet unfunded.
