HOUSTON METRO

The University Corridor Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project by Houston Metro is a significant community endeavor supported by federal grants and a voter-approved tax initiative.

AlphaVu combines public opinion metrics and GIS data to gain detailed insights into public support for capital projects. They analyze neighborhood sentiments, especially in disadvantaged and hard-to-reach communities, using the U.S. Department of Transportation’s definition. This analysis helps allocate resources effectively and meet reporting requirements for federal grants, prioritizing neighborhoods requiring greater public input.
