Bus Rapid Transit

Neglecting to talk to bus riders, NY1 reporter Ruschell Boone gives Woodhaven Boulevard SBS the driver gripefest treatment.

The design of Albuquerque's "ART" transitway rates higher than any other American bus rapid transit project.

Dedicated bus lanes and all-door boarding debuted on the Bx6 earlier this month, and riders are noticing the difference.

The bus route serves 24,000 daily trips in an area where 76 percent of households don't own cars, but Salamanca, Marcos Crespo, Ruben Diaz Sr., and Jeff Klein are more worried about car traffic.

The city has started work on its first BRT route, which could be the beginning of an 80-mile network.

During the L shutdown, the MTA plans to run shuttle buses at rush hour connecting Williamsburg to Manhattan. Some sort of transit priority treatment is on the table for Brooklyn streets where buses connect to the bridge, but what DOT has in mind isn't clear.

Eight years in the making, the project was undone by suburban opposition. Now, transit advocates in Michigan's capital are figuring out what can be done to improve transit while their opponents take a victory lap.

A capacity crowd of around 80 people gathered at a community center in Chelsea last night to brainstorm the future of 14th Street.

As the city and MTA consider how to move thousands of L train passengers across Manhattan when the subway line shuts down for Sandy-related repairs, momentum is growing for a 14th Street "PeopleWay" free of private motor vehicles. But with 10,000 passengers during the peak hour in the peak direction, prohibiting cars alone won't prevent 14th Street from becoming a bus parking lot, according to Annie Weinstock and Walter Hook at BRT Planning International.
