The Capital Area Rural Transportation System (CARTS), Williamson County, and
participating municipal jurisdictions in Williamson and Travis Counties initiated a
study of the feasibility of improving transit services. This study focuses on all of
Williamson County except Round Rock and Leander, but includes the City of

implementation.
The final report is available as a set of PDF documents.
