Route
In the north, the Uptown Line would begin at the Northwest Transit Center, travel southbound crossing I-10 and come to Memorial Station. From here, the link would go underground in the median of I-610, resurfacing after Post Oak Boulevard and servicing the Uptown Park shopping center. The remainder of the route would travel down the median strip of Post Oak Boulevard, making stops at San Felipe, Ambassador Way, Guilford Court, West Alabama, and Richmond. Transfers to the University/Blue Line would occur at the Bellaire/South Rice Station.

Famous quotes containing the word route:
“But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
