Houston's bus system is already one of the best in the world. (No joke.) Low fares, frequent service, and a good amount of transit centers and busways (carpool lanes) to speed people along.

What they need to do is build more stations and extend the busways further out into the suburbs (maybe allow people to drive them for a toll to help pay for them), keep the low bus fares, widen streets to give them a lane, and give the buses signal priority. All of this will be much cheaper and more comprehensive than running a light rail system to a city that has a weak center.
