It’s been speculated about for months, and now it’s official – the Streetcar Study Committee has chosen the routes that will be recommended to the City Council for the streetcar starter system. The committee’s recommendation will be that the city builds the Downtown loop, Cultural District line, and Near Southside line as the initial phase of the Fort Worth modern streetcar system.
(A rough representation of those routes is shown above.)
The streetcar system takes another step forward with this news. Now, the committee will present its recommendations to the City Council – at this month’s meeting, I believe (if somebody with more info is out there, correct me if I’m wrong about that date).
