Part of the METRONext Moving Forward Plan, the University Corridor project is a new METRORapid line which will operate in a dedicated, transit-only lane to move through traffic. The proposed route alignment passes through multiple residential, business and education centers between the Westchase Park & Ride near the intersection of the Westpark Tollway and the Sam Houston Tollway and ending at the Tidwell Transit Center, near the intersection of Tidwell Road and US. Highway 59. Through Neartown, the line is proposed to travel down Richmond Ave.
