The Federal Transit Administration is recommending $158 million in funding for VIA Metropolitan Transit to establish an Advanced Rapid Transit route connecting passengers to the airport from downtown.a planned advanced rapid transit system for San Antonio could be well on its way, with the Federal Transit Administration announcing Wednesday the agency would recommend the project for federal funding.
The estimated $320 million project would establish dedicated lanes along San Pedro Avenue for a north-south rapid transit bus corridor between the San Antonio International Airport and downtown. If funded, construction on the 12-mile corridor for a rapid transit system could start in 2025. Capital investment grant projects require local matching funds, which Arndt said will come from COVID-19 relief funding and the allocation of a one-eighth-cent share of local sales tax money voters approved for VIA in 2020 and that begins in 2026. , Arndt added, which does not require payback until five years after the project starts operating. The transit route is expected to be ready by 2027.
