Houston does well in bid for Olympics, at least according to this Chron article. Sounds like the number of facilities we already have in place helped to impress the USOC.
Best news in the article:
“We talked at length about the prospects of adding some more high capacity, whether light rail or otherwise, particularly going to the two airports and other key centers that need to move people,” [USOC task force chair Charles] Moore said. “It’s not done, but it looks promising.”
Rail lines to the airports! Woo hoo!
