A new bus rapid transit (BRT) system is being developed in Phoenix, AZ. The new service will include architect designed contemporary passenger stations and a fleet of specialized vehicles that will turn heads. The service is scheduled to begin this July. "The service, patterned after rail travel, includes larger, sleeker, more comfortable buses, designed with commuters in mind. It has new park-and-ride lots and fewer stops so riders get downtown faster. And it has more frequent buses and expanded hours to better accommodate business schedules."
