Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is an exciting idea to improve public transport. BRT is all about providing an enhanced travel system, which is very comfortable, reliable, affordable and quick.
BRT will provide passengers with a new fleet of buses that will have comfortable interiors and use environmentally friendly engines. High quality bus stops and waiting areas will be provided along with more options for purchasing tickets before you board. Passengers will also find out about when their next bus will arrive thanks to electronic displays showing updated timetable information (Real Time Passenger Information).
Most importantly, the BRT buses would only stop at a limited number of places along the corridor making the journey between Rotherham and Sheffield quicker and more convenient.
Roads will be widened at key sections of the route to create new dedicated lanes for BRT and other bus services. The same road space will be kept for all other traffic.
