to fewer stops, dedicated lanes and
pre-boarding fare payment. The BRT
buses will also feature wider doors
and aisles, and curb-level access, so
that riders can get on and off quickly
and easily.
Dedicated, well-lit Rush Line
BRT stations will provide shelter,
on-demand heating and real-time
departure information. Once open,
Rush Line BRT buses will run all day
in both directions, every 10 minutes
during peak hours and every 15 to
30 minutes at other times. Elsewhere
in the Twin Cities, the A Line
between Roseville and Minneapolis
and the METRO Red Line between
Bloomington and Apple Valley
currently provide types of BRT service.
Business owners along the Rush
Line BRT route have expressed
particular interest in this new service.
Once open, the Rush Line BRT will
help riders save money on parking
and transportation, provide greater
access to jobs and activities, and help
support economic development near
stations. Studies have shown that BRT
access can help nearby employers
attract and retain employees and
customers by providing convenient,
reliable transportation regardless of
weather or freeway congestion.
While construction of the Rush Line
BRT won’t begin until 2024, planning
is underway to ensure the project
meets the needs and interests of
the communities along the route.
The project team from Ramsey
County, which is leading the project,
is currently gathering input from
residents, businesses and other
stakeholders along the route on
topics such as pedestrian and bicycle
safety near stations, key destinations
along the route and potential
environmental impacts. Input
obtained through public engagement
is informing the environmental
analysis and preliminary engineering
for the project.
