BRT is a bus service that has a more modern look than a conventional bus, runs every 10 to 15 minutes and controls traffic signals to reduce travel time. BRT has frequent stops. BRT stations include upgrades such as lighting, benches, signs and announcements so riders know when the next bus is arriving. Buses could run until midnight on weekdays and 10 p.m. on weekends.

Under this plan, BRT has been added to highly traveled streets to connect with other bus, roads, and bike and pedestrian pathways and would operate in these areas:
