VIA moves to boost mass transit in San Antonio

VIA ocials said the Green Line and a planned east-west ART corridor, the Silver Line, will increase bus frequency citywide.

VIA’s board awarded a $2.07 million contract to Flatiron Constructors and Herzog Contracting Corp. to lead VIA’s Advanced Rapid Transit North-South corridor, dubbed the Green Line.

BY EDMOND ORTIZ

VIA Metropolitan Transit trustees Jan. 23 chose a contractor to head multiple projects to improve rider experience and mobility across San Antonio.

Candidates who filed for May 4

12 candidates apply for NEISD board election Filing for May 4 municipal and school board elections ended before spring break, and 12 resi- dents are seeking five North East ISD board seats. No contested races will happen in Hill Country Village, Hollywood Park or Shavano Park. What happened NEISD residents had until Feb. 16, the state’s application deadline for May 4 elections, to file for the District 1, 4, 5 and 6 trustee positions. The school district accepted applicants through March 4 for a special May 4 election to fill the remaining District 2 board seat term left vacant following trustee Terri Williams’ death. The District 2 term lapses in 2026; the other board seats carry a four-year term each. Dig deeper Officials with Hollywood Park and Hill Country

NEISD, NISD decline to hire paid chaplains Trustees with North East ISD and Northside ISD voted Feb. 12 and 27, respec- tively, to not change policies to employ school chaplains or accept volunteer chaplains on campuses. The background The Texas Legislature in 2023 passed Senate Bill 763, which allows public school boards to decide whether their district can have chaplains offer mental or behavioral health support to students. What they’re saying Several residents spoke at the NEISD and NISD board meetings, voicing concerns that changing policies could permit nonscreened individuals without proper training to provide guidance to a diverse population.

Shavano Park leaders eye future road projects While bond-funded upgrades continue on several Shavano Park city streets, local leaders are planning more infrastructure fixes in other parts of the city. The background At the Feb. 26 City Council meeting, city officials and consultants said they are awaiting final approval on a $4 million federal grant agreement to support planned additional road upgrades, with $3 million going to De Zavala Road. Local officials said the remaining $1 million could be used to fix some older city streets. Dig deeper Tom Turk, principal of Freeland Turk Engineer- ing Group, told council about his company’s recent assessment of roads in neighborhoods west of Northwest Military Highway.

Loop 1604 expansion work moves forward Texas Department of Transportation officials on March 1 said work crews handling the $662 million expansion and improvement of Loop 1604 between US 281 and I-10 are expected to finish in October 2025. TxDOT’s Loop 1604 project, which ranges between Bandera Road and I-35, will add six total new lanes, new interchanges at Blanco Road and at I-10, and safety accommodations for pedestrians and cyclists along the freeway.

Based on Freeland’s survey, Turk recommended rebuilding two of the candidate roads and pro- vided preliminary cost estimates: • Post Oak Way from Lockhill Selma Road to Cinnamon Oak: $403,125 • Cinnamon Oak from Huebner Road to Post Oak Way: $627,083 Turk said his team will keep looking at potential repair methods and cost estimates for the next phase of envisioned road improvements.

VIA moves to boost mass transit in San Antonio

BY EDMOND ORTIZ

Next steps

A closer look

Two-minute impact

SAN ANTONIO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

New rapid rides The Green Line—a north-south corridor—and the Silver Line—a west-east corridor—will use existing VIA bus routes lled with multiple pickup/dropo platforms and fare kiosks.

VIA ocials said enhanced services could fur- ther increase bus ridership on routes in the north central area and citywide.

Residents who use VIA’s services voiced optimism about future improvements. Hollywood Park-area resident Kyle Willmon said he enjoys free onboard WiFi connectivity, and thinks planned initiatives such as the Silver Line could enhance VIA’s system, but noted there is room for more improvement. “The frequency of routes in this area could denitely be improved,” Willmon said. “The mobile [payment] app is functional, but it’d be much more convenient if I could just tap a credit card when I board.” Kevin Wol, VIA’s Advanced Rapid Transit panel chair, said developing the Green and Silver lines should prompt service upgrades along existing routes, the creation of new routes, and other system initiatives. VIA ocials said next steps are to secure $289.2 million in federal and local money to fully fund physical construction of the Green

and Silver lines; the latter of which is set to open in 2029. Representatives for groups such as the North San Antonio Chamber of Commerce recently backed VIA’s eorts, saying the Green and Silver lines as well as other Advanced Rapid Transit measures will further boost commercial growth. Further details on VIA’s plans are available at www.keepsamoving.com.

VIA’s leaders said the new lines will bolster rider frequency and reliability in a growing city where VIA totals 24 million passenger trips annually on 75 routes over 1,210 square miles. VIA President and CEO Je Arndt said the Green and Silver lines will allow users to pay before they board a specialized bus with multiple entry/exit doors. Passengers will be dropped o or picked up every 10-15 minutes at each station along the lines, where stations and amenities will be installed along dedicated lanes on existing routes. VIA ocials said the 11-mile Green Line, which will link the San Antonio International Airport on the north side with the Spanish colonial missions on the south side, will feature 26 drop-o/pickup platforms and should be operational in 2027. Arndt said the Green and Silver lines will mimic commuter rail, where bus-friendly

trac signals, real-time route information and improved bus boarding infrastructure will widen access to riders of all abilities and deliver passengers to their destinations faster. “It’s a big game-changer,” Arndt said. Arndt said VIA will begin receiving in 2026 a portion of proceeds from the city’s sales tax that voters via a ballot initiative in 2020 approved to further support public transit. Arndt said, at that point, VIA will look to further increase bus service frequency and improve other services citywide, including growing the number of weekend routes and expanding service later into the night.
