Houston needs more lines. It’s very pathetic for a city that overs over 650 sq miles

True. Sugarland especially needs it. Galveston needs a rail or bus to go up to at least Clear Lake, then people can transfer if necessary.

Hopefully they extend purple line to Hobby airport like they said they might.

What can be done about the violent homeless people threatening passengers on the rail and defecating on the seats and floors?
