Just recently, Keep Austin Beautiful awarded a grant to the University of Texas Landscape Architecture program to adopt three bus stops. The project will include a competition where students will submit design proposals that may include shading the bus stop through vegetation and shelter structures, seating, accommodation of trash/recycling facilities as well as low-maintenance planting designs. The winning student teams will be able to construct their designs.
