The same boulevard.

One transformation.

Today, buses share lanes with 1,200 cars per hour. Signal delays stack. A 3-mile trip takes 45 minutes. The Corridor dedicates the center lane — no turns, no parking, no compromise.

Performance Data

Numbers city planners
can take to a hearing.

Every metric sourced from deployed BRT systems. Not projections — measured outcomes from corridors already running.

travel time reduction
Grand Rapids Silver Line
Route travel time dropped from 45 to 27 minutes after dedicated lanes opened in 2014. Ridership grew 2,300 riders per day.

Cost Advantage
BRT can be built using existing HOV lanes and parking rights-of-way. No tunneling, no elevated stations, no decade-long construction.

annual passenger time savings
Austin MetroRapid
95,000 passenger hours saved per year on a single corridor. At $15.85/hour average wage, that's real economic value per mile.

Dedicated to BRT Projects
As of Jan 1, 2025, nearly two-thirds of FTA Capital Investment Grant funding targets BRT under the Small Starts category.

60-ft Articulated Electric

A vehicle designed for the corridor.

New Flyer 60-foot articulated buses — 1.5× the capacity of standard buses, fully electric, with doors on both sides. Boarding from the platform means no steps, no fumbling for fares, no waiting.

Transit Signal Priority

The light changes for the bus.

Transit Signal Priority technology detects approaching vehicles and extends green phases — or shortens red — at every intersection. The bus never stops for a red light it doesn't have to.

Network Coverage

One corridor is the start.
165 miles is the plan.

Twelve lines. Every major arterial. All-day frequency. The Twin Cities model proves the network effect — each new corridor multiplies the value of every existing one.
