Bus Rapid Transit DefinitionBus Rapid Transit Definition
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is best explained as the simulation of rail transit using bus technology.
Key components are: high frequency bus service along the Corridor,
enhanced amenities such as aesthetic street furniture and landscaping,
technology treatments to make the service “rapid” and
appropriate marketing campaigns
