The Promise Of Bus Rapid Transit And 'HOT' Lanes

"There's a new, critical element in this HOT lane proposal--public transit. The HOT lanes wouldn't be reserved just for paying private vehicles. They'd also become high-speed guideways, without cost, for local transit authorities' express buses, plus vanpools. Bus Rapid Transit--BRT--is coming on fast on the worldwide public transit scene. The idea of large, modern buses on exclusive rights-of-way has made progress in Pittsburgh, northern Virginia, Los Angeles and approaches to New York City. Several emulate successful systems in Curitiba, Brazil, Bogota and Ottawa."
