Rail helps.
The map is bigger.
Use current METRO routing and service alerts. Proposed lines in a research report are not operating services.
Red Line
A useful spine for selected cultural trips. Check the exact station, last-mile walk, and return service.
Official calendar / visit details ↗Green + Purple
Use the system map for the destination you mean. A neighborhood label does not identify its closest station.
Official calendar / visit details ↗Bellaire + Spring Branch
These dining corridors require a specific bus route or another transport plan. Confirm stop locations, crossings, and the way home.
Official calendar / visit details ↗Do not ride a future rendering
For transit expansions, consult METRO’s current project list. Do not build a trip around the report’s proposed University Line or projected completion dates.
Official calendar / visit details ↗13 / Street sense
Heat. Rain.
Use your head.
Check local weather and official alerts. Make decisions from actual conditions rather than neighborhood stereotypes.
Water + shade + indoor breaks
Avoid stacking long exposed walks in intense heat. Adjust the plan to the day’s conditions and your needs.

Floodwater is not a shortcut

Personal precautionsThe night ends with a ride
Save the address, charge your phone, keep valuables secured, and arrange the return trip. Seek staff assistance when needed; call 911 for an immediate emergency.
Homes are homes
Murals and art projects do not make every porch public. Ask before photographing people and stay within posted visitor areas.
