This is a list of bus rapid transit (BRT) systems which are in operation or under construction. The term "BRT" has been applied to a wide range of bus services. In 2012, the Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP) published a BRT Standard to make it easier to standardize and compare bus services.
Africa
Morocco
- Marrakesh : BRT Marrakesh, opened 28 September 2017. Not BRT certified in 2022.[1]
- Casablanca : Casablanca Busway, opened 1st March 2024.
Nigeria
- Lagos: The Lagos Bus Rapid Transit System was its first in Africa. The Nigerian government is building a BRT system for the Lagos Metropolitan Area, and the project's first phase has been completed.[2] The first phase, from mile 12 through Ikorodu Road and Funsho Williams Avenue to CMS, was commissioned on March 17, 2008. Not BRT certified in 2022.[1]
The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) BRT corridor is about 22 kilometres long.[3] Two operators, NURTW Cooperative and the state-owned Lagos BRT, contributed about 180 high-capacity buses to the first phase. It is the world's most economical BRT, costing $1.6 million per km for the 22-km route.[citation needed] The first phase cost N4.5 billion (about US$35 million) and included elevated segregation barriers, road repairs on bus and service lanes, de-silting of blocked drainage channels, and bus stops. Included in this group includes the Oshodi - Abule-Egba BRT Lane and many others. Not BRT certified in 2022.[1]
Senegal
- Dakar : BRT Dakar, ongoing construction since 2019, delivery planned by the end of 2023. It will work together with the Train Express Regional Dakar-AIBD to improve the public transportation system around and in Dakar.[4]
South Africa
- Cape Town: The city's MyCiTi system began operations in May 2010, just before the World Cup. Its first service was a shuttle from the airport to the central business district. The initial Phase 1A trunk and feeder services began operation in May 2011. The remaining Phase 1A construction was completed in 2014, and phase 1B construction was completed in 2015.[5] Bronze BRT certified in 2022.[1]
- Johannesburg: The Rea Vaya ("We're moving") line opened its first phase (phase 1A) to the public on 30 August 2009, and BRT expansion is under construction; stations and roadworks are mainly completed or are in the final stages. The system was partially opened for the 2010 World Cup, with the full system linking most of Johannesburg from Soweto in the south to beyond Sandton in the north. Buses include those able to use the BRT stations and general bus stops, to be feeders for the network; others are articulated, and can only use BRT stations.[6][7] Like most transport projects, the system will be implemented in phases. Phase 1 of the estimated two-billion-rand projects has run articulated right-of-way buses along dedicated median bus lanes in both directions across Johannesburg since 2010, covering almost half the city.[6] The 120-km Phase 1 route includes 150 stations, eight terminals, and six depots. Phase 1A, consisting of a 40-km route with 48 stations, was completed in April 2009 (before the FIFA Confederations Cup); Phase 1B added 86 km and 102 stations to the system before the 2010 World Cup. According to the city's website, the system is fully integrated with other transport networks. Rea Vaya will not compete with other transport systems, such as the South African Rail Commuter Corporation or the Gautrain.[8]
- Johannesburg, City of Ekurhuleni: Harambee BRT is under Construction.
- Gqeberha, Nelson Mandela Bay: A BRT system was implemented by IPTS in the city for the 2010 World Cup.[9] Bus lanes have been built through the city, with buses built by Marcopolo.
- Pretoria, Tshwane: Construction began in July 2012,[10] and the system was to be operational by A Re Yeng BRT bus from five in the morning to midnight.[11]
- Rustenburg: The Yarona ("It is ours") BRT system began with Phase 1A trunk and feeder services in 2016.[12]
- Durban: GO! BRT bus on Durban is still under construction in 2023.
- Polokwane: Leeto La Polokwane BRT system (under construction)
Tanzania
- Dar-es-Salaam began operations for its first BRT corridor on 10 May 2016. Construction of the first phase was completed in December 2015 at a total cost of €134 million funded by the African Development Bank, World Bank and the Government of Tanzania.[13] The first phase of the project has a total length of 21.1 kilometers with dedicated bus lanes on three trunk routes with a total of 29 stations. Not BRT certified in 2022.[1]

![Blue bus at a station](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/WardenVIVA6-RAW.jpg/220px-WardenVIVA6-RAW.jpg)
- Brampton, Ontario: Brampton Transit's Züm has a pay-on-board system, similar to its local Brampton Transit counterpart.[15]
- Calgary, Alberta: Calgary Transit's MAX System and BRT System make up their network of rapid transit along with their light rail.
- Durham Region, Ontario (suburban Toronto): Durham Region Transit's DRT Pulse
- Gatineau, Quebec: Société de transport de l'Outaouais's Rapibus
- Halifax, Nova Scotia: Metro Transit's MetroLink was a BRT system with three routes linking Portland Hills, Woodside and Sackville and downtown Halifax. Fares were higher than the conventional Metro Transit.
- Kelowna, British Columbia: Kelowna Regional Transit System's RapidBus (part of BC Transit)
- Montreal, Quebec (STM BRT): The SRB (Service rapide par bus) Pie-IX is currently under construction on Pie-IX Boulevard, with dedicated right of way and station-like stops, including indoor transfer to a metro station also under construction. Other lines have preferential traffic signals and dedicated lanes.[16]
- Mississauga, Ontario: MiWay's Mississauga Transitway
- Ottawa: OC Transpo Transitway is one of North America's largest BRT systems, with over 200,000 passengers daily and peak capacities of 10,000 passengers per hour per direction. Most sections of the Transitway have a speed limit of 70–90 km/h (43–56 mph) between stations and 50 km/h (31 mph) in station areas. Many routes converge at the Transitway, providing frequent service.
- Quebec City: Réseau de transport de la Capitale's Métrobus has four BRT routes throughout the city: routes 800, 801, 802, 803, 804 and 807
- Saint John, New Brunswick: Saint John Transit's three ComeX (Community Express) routes link Grand Bay-Westfield, Rothesay, Quispamsis and Hampton to uptown Saint John. The fare is higher than the conventional Saint John Transit.
- Saskatoon: Saskatoon Transit had four DART (Direct Access Rapid Transit) routes which connected downtown Saskatoon, Confederation Mall, The Centre, the University of Saskatchewan, The Mall at Lawson Heights, University Heights Suburban Centre and the Saskatchewan Polytechnical Institute campus. The service was expanded to a greater set of suburban connector routes, but rebranded into STS's regularly scheduled service. (e.g. 81, 82, 83, 84, and 86 serving outgoing routes, and are all consolidated as 8 when returning to the downtown terminal after serving their respective neighbourhoods.)
- Toronto: Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) formerly operated the BRT route, 196 York University Rocket on the York University Busway. Although it has been successful, the TTC planned to close the BRT route once the extension to Line 1 of the Toronto subway was completed.[17] Following completion of the subway extension, the small portion near York University was closed and turned back to the university, whereas the just under 2 km section between Finch West station and Dufferin Street remains in operation. The busway is still used by a handful of routes. Elsewhere, dedicated bus lanes are starting to be installed on city roadways, starting with Eglinton Avenue East, Kingston Road and Morningside Avenue in 2020. Jane Street is being planned through 2021, with three additional corridors (Dufferin, Steeles West and Finch East) to be designed afterwards. A sixth corridor (Lawrence East) is in consideration.[18]
- Vancouver: TransLink's RapidBus started in 2020 as a successor to its B-Lines, with more passenger features and amenities. The 99 B-Line is the last remaining B-Line route and has been successful, but TransLink estimates that its SkyTrain costs about $0.75 per ride compared to $1.04-$2.22 for its BRT routes. Two B-Line routes have been replaced by rapid-transit lines; the 98 B-Line was replaced with the Canada Line in 2009 and the 97 B-Line by the Evergreen Extension in 2016. Another two B-Lines, the 95 and 96, were replaced with RapidBus routes, the R5 and R1 respectively. Along with the two upgraded B-Lines, there are also three other RapidBus routes, R2, the R3 and R4.
- Victoria, British Columbia: Victoria Regional Transit System's Blink RapidBus service started in 2023, providing faster and more frequent service on an existing bus corridor using bus priority lanes.[19] The service has its own branding with larger and differently colored bus shelters.
- Waterloo Region, Ontario: Grand River Transit's iXpress has two routes, one of which (Route 200) has been converted to the ION light rail.[20]
- Winnipeg: Winnipeg Transit's Winnipeg RT operates similarly to Ottawa's, with dedicated lanes outside the downtown core and HOV lanes within it. The first phase connects downtown with Fort Rouge, with current routes servicing the University of Manitoba along Pembina Highway and a few suburban communities in the south-west. It will be eventually extended to Bison Drive.[21]
- York Region, Ontario (suburban Toronto): York Region Transit's Viva began service in 2005. In response to escalating congestion on the region's roads, the region's transit plan included a provision for a BRT system along the Yonge Street and Highway 7 arterial corridors.[22] Most of the system does not contain transit-priority measures, other than an honor system of fare payment. However, construction is underway on dedicated busways, and the first segment opened on March 6, 2011.[23]
Chile
- Santiago: Transantiago
- Concepción: A transit system is integrated between the electric Biotren and BioBus, based on dedicated bus rights-of-way.

City | Name | Began | Lines | Length | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bogotá | TransMilenio | December 2000 | 12 | 113 km | |
Cali | MIO | March 2011 | 8 | 49 km | Phase I completed; phase II under construction |
Medellín | es:Metroplús | December 2011 | 3 | 12.5 km | Line 2 opened 2013[24] |
Barranquilla | Transmetro | April 2010 | 2 | 13.3 km | |

Pereira | Megabús | August 2006 | 3 | 27 km | |
Cartagena | Transcaribe | November 2015 | 1 | 15.3 km |
Bogotá's segregated, four-lane TransMilenio system has a maximum peak-load capacity of 45,000 passengers per hour per direction (pphpd) on its busiest line.[25] The system uses modular median stations that serve both directions and enable prepaid, multiple-door, level boarding.[25] The average stop time is 24 seconds. Trunk-line terminals have integrated bicycle parking; the fare card opens a gate to a secure bicycle parking area. Two lanes in each direction permit "Quickways" (local service on the inside lane combined with express service, skipping four or five stations at a time).[26] TransMilenio was described as a "model BRT system" in the National Bus Rapid Transit Institute's May 2006 report. It serves Bogotá with high-capacity, articulated, three-door buses. Bi-articulated buses are used on the busiest routes, and a smart card system is used for fare collection. Despite its large capacity, Transmilenio had problems with overcrowding.[27]
