  1. Another example of rail transit's capital cost not guaranteeing permanence. Anything can be ripped out and replaced with something else, including an automated metro line 🤷 #publictransit #transit #brt

  6. The appeal of bus rapid transit is that it is quicker and cheaper to build than rail #transit. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy. As we see in Denver, this is because #BRT often requires rethinking how a busy road works. Meanwhile, businesses along the way must cope with lengthy road closures. denverite.com/2026/05/06/colfa

  7. Construction progress on the MARTA Rapid A line: cameras, fare validators, and call boxes are working at shelters that are open for use. Electronic screens are powered up, awaiting to display travel information.

  12. I met Lilly watching the new MARTA train daytime testing. Here is their take on the Rapid A line: youtube.com/watch?v=kMLob5ZejAY

  13. The fundamental flaw of adding #BRT in #Fairfax County is that County transportation planners are forcing everybody to retain the same number of traffic lanes for regular ol' gas-guzzling cars, rather than letting space be divested from cars and invested in public transit.

  14. The new MARTA A-Line bus is in service, but the stations are not finished yet, so the whole route is fare-free until May 2nd.

  15. J’ai testé le #TZen4 avec @nini l’autre jour.

    Aurait-ce pu être un tramway plutôt qu’un #bus ? Il y a quelques points sur le tracé qui auraient été très compliqués à réaménager.

    En tout cas, les Van Hool ExquiCity 24 de cette ligne sont confortables et silencieux, car 100% électriques. Le nôtre a dû faire un détour de plusieurs kilomètres pour desservir l’arrêt suivant à cause d’une manifestation, prouvant qu’ils ont bien assez d’autonomie pour gérer des cas exceptionnels.

  23. Hiked the west end of the Border Route Trail along the GunFlint this morning. Saw two gray wolves coming out of the trees on the way to the trailhead. Did the loop to Magnetic Rock in warm sunshine. Wonderful day for a walk. #brt #borderroutetrail #northcountrytrail #MNastodon

  24. 🚌🇵🇹 CaetanoBus is leading the world’s first #hydrogen Bus Rapid #Transit (BRT) consortium headed by a bus manufacturer, marking its shift from vehicle producer to #mobility solutions provider. The project supports the launch of #Metro do Porto’s first hydrogen-powered #BRT corridor in Porto.

    Under a single-contract model, CaetanoBus coordinated vehicle supply, green hydrogen production, refuelling infrastructure, solar energy generation, depot energy management and long-term maintenance. The system includes 12 H2.CityGold 18-metre #buses using #Toyota fuel cell #technology.

    The integrated structure centralises accountability, aiming to improve reliability, reduce complexity and lower total cost of ownership. CaetanoBus plans to expand the model with a pay-per-use offer, enabling operators to access fleet and energy infrastructure on a per-kilometre basis, reducing upfront capital costs.
