Texas Intercity Rail Expansion Could Ease Congestion, Boost Connectivity
The article examines if intercity rail can help handle increased travel demand in certain Texas areas by 1990 when highways may not handle all travelers. The researchers discuss why rail travel is considered and the challenges of providing rail services. They identify travel patterns in specific corridors and suggest ways to address travel capacity issues, including rail travel. The study strongly suggests that integrating intercity rail services could be a valuable solution for managing future travel demands in these regions.
