Full speed ahead: The future of transportation in Tarrant County

As Fort Worth ascends to the rank of the 12th largest city in the nation, and Arlington prepares to host multiple World Cup games, the future of transit in Tarrant County has never been more critical. Join us for a panel discussion as we explore the transportation challenges and opportunities our region may face in the coming years.

We will cover Fort Worth’s ambitious plans for a new urban rail system and the unique position of Arlington as the largest U.S. city without mass public transit. Come engage with local leaders, contribute to the discussion, and help shape the future of transportation in Tarrant County.

Panelists include:

• Mattie Parker, Mayor of Fort Worth
• Jim Ross, Mayor of Arlington
• Michael Morris, Director of Transportation, North Central Texas Council of Governments
