Project Description

The City of Madison is exploring options for a new east-west bus rapid transit (BRT) line to make our city’s transit system work faster and smarter. BRT uses dedicated lanes and modern stations to provide fast and cost-effective service to jobs, entertainment, and schools. Madison’s BRT will complement existing Madison Metro routes and be our city’s next big step toward a sustainable local transit system.

The goal of this project is to select design details for the first segment of the BRT system. Once a design details have been chosen, the city will apply for federal funding to help develop the system. The anticipated schedule for this project is 12 months. Among the details to be identified through this study are the start/finish, station locations, potential routes, and the use of BRT infrastructure including dedicated bus lanes.
