About

Support Our Underwriters!

Want to help inform the public about the benefits of light rail, rail transit, better mass transit, and more diverse mobility options? Become a Light Rail Now Project underwriter!

The Light Rail Now Project, engaging in public information and outreach to promote public transport, is sponsored by Texas Association for Public Transportation, a 501(c)(3) charitable educational organization. Contributions may be tax-deductible. TAPT believes that presenting facts, reliable information, and well-supported arguments is important to counteract the avalanche of misinformation and misconception about LRT and mass transportation in general, and to enable planners, decisionmakers, and the public to make truly informed decisions.

The Light Rail Now Project team strongly appreciates the following underwriters whose generous contributions help fund the ongoing maintenance and expansion of this website:
