This is my favorite event! I love when our front line staff get to showcase their skills. Congrats to our winners-can't wait for y'all to represent at the @APTA_info National Roadeo next year! And thx to @AustinISD for lending us the Burger Center parking lot over the weekend.

(1/3) We had a BOO-tiful time with our team & families for ROADEO 2024! 👻🤠 Our talented #CapMetro operators and mechanics wowed with their impressive technical skills. Congrats to our champions headed to the National @APTA_info Roadeo in April 2025! 🏆 @APTA_Transit

Crews are making progress on clearing the derailment from early this morning, but rail service will remain disrupted into the evening. Please continue to look for #CapMetro staff at rail platforms for directions to shuttle buses along the Red Line. We appreciate the patience and…



Appreciate the patience of our customers & community as crews work to clear the derailment. This will take time & will affect rail service for the rest of the day. Staff will remain at platforms to assist customers. I’m deeply grateful to our team for their hard work on this.

This is impacting our customers this morning & we apologize for that. We have staff at select rail stations to help guide customers to shuttle buses & crews are working as fast as they can to get this cleaned up! We will provide updates when we can.

Due to a freight train derailment on the CapMetro tracks, our rail service is temporarily disrupted. Please find staff members at the platforms who will guide you to CapMetro buses operating along the rail route. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience…

I love it when #CapMetro team members bring the newest, littlest #transit advocates in to ensure we're on top of things! Here we are having a deep discussion about which routes are his favorite. 🥰

It’s another busy weekend for @CapMetroATX as we support both @aclfestival and @Q2Stadium tonight. The team is doing a great job! Remember to thank a transit worker when you see them this weekend!

Big thanks to our frontline staff for safely connecting @ACLfestival -goers by bus, train and Bikeshare. Y'all are the true headliners, BOTH weekends! 😍😍

Aw, I love this! As a former @ReillyElem student, I know what I'm saying when I say - I feel like I spot a future #CapMetro CEO in that crowd!

My thoughts are with everyone who will be impacted by Hurricane Milton this week, including the many transit workers who are still working to transport people safely to shelters. They are truly heroes. Please stay safe! @GoHART #TBARTA

As Hurricane Milton rapidly intensifies on its track toward Florida, Tampa Bay residents face hurdles to evacuate. For seniors and others needing emergency assistance, local county governments are offering help. Here's what to know: trib.al/4go6tFz



What a ride! Our #WeekWithoutDrivingATX at @CapMetroATX was an eye-opener. Huge thanks to our incredible staff and everyone who took part!

#WeekwithoutdrivingATX Friday roundup! My staff have been all over the service area this week biking, riding @capmetroatx and walking. They’ve gone for groceries, come into the office or job sites, run errands with kiddos and seen some very crowded buses. 💪

Last day of #WeekWithoutDrivingATX. Some @capmetroatx staff headed down to @aclfestival via Bus and Bikeshare! I'd sure hate to be stuck in a car near Zilker Park this weekend (and next!). Thanks to all who participated in this year's #WeekWithoutDriving initiative!

Not everyone has the option to drive, but everyone deserves the freedom to get where they need to go and pursue their passions. Public transit can help create independence and equal opportunities for all. @AustinISD #CapMetro #WeekWithoutDriving #WeekWithoutDrivingATX
