Ten Austin-area high school students went through an seven-week summer internship with the Austin Transit Partnership.
It was a chance to teach the students about careers in transportation engineering and planning.
The Austin area is filled with multiple billion-dollar infrastructure projects in the pipeline.
“We’re going to need about 10,000 more workers annually forecasting after 2040, if we’re going to deliver on the promise of these projects,” said Workforce Solutions Capital Area Director of Mobility Industry Partnerships Sarah Garza.
