BRT in China

BRT, or Bus Rapid Transit, in China refers to a high-quality bus system designed for quick, efficient urban transportation. It features dedicated lanes that allow buses to avoid traffic congestion, frequent service, and modern stations with often pre-paid boarding to reduce delays. China's BRT networks are extensive, especially in major cities like Guangzhou and Chengdu, providing a cost-effective and flexible alternative to rail transit. They aim to enhance mobility, reduce pollution, and improve urban traffic flow without the high costs of subway or commuter rail systems.
