Bus rapid transit (BRT) combines the advantages of traditional bus systems and light-rail systems. BRT preserves the flexibility and lower cost of fixed bus routes, but has improved efficiency and other amenities like light rail. BRT routes run at a higher frequency than other bus routes, making BRT a competitive alternative and attractive to riders.
