This map shows roughly where the proposed new line would run, but a Google Map (link below) shows it in much greater detail.

Austin's public transit agency Capital Metro has announced that it will begin a one-year trial service to the exurb of Cedar Park.

Cedar Park City Council still has to vote on the measure at its next meeting on December 16. Under the deal, Cedar Park and Austin Community College would pay CapMetro almost $117,000.

CapMetro has posted the above map on its website giving a simple representation of the new line, but it also created this Google Map that shows the route in much greater detail.

If Cedar Park City Council gives the green light, service would start on January 18, 2011.
