Austin Mobility Forum
Setting Transportation Priorities
February 8-11, 2010
Greetings!
What should we do to improve travel in Austin?
We're Listening.
The goal of the Austin Mobility Program is to make it easier to move around our city. From roads to rail to buses, bicycles, and sidewalks, our transportation system can provide us all with better options and a better quality of life.

A view of downtown from Burnet Road? That's what Amy Bankowski, Community Manager of the new 5350 Burnet Apartment development tells me you will have leasing one of their fourth floor units. You can see the UT tower and downtown Austin. Who would have thought? The road known for used car lots and used clothing stores is going upscale. Is Allandale ready to be “the Real Austin”, as referred to in the 5350 Burnet apartment brochure? It likens Burnet Road to South Congress and says it's filled with “funky shops and restaurants.”
