Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)

Nationally, there is a movement towards upgraded bus systems that focus on faster, more convenient, and reliable bus services, known as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems. BRTs are known to have limited-stop bus service implemented with dedicated bus lanes along set routes in metropolitan areas across the US and worldwide. Flash is a planned bus rapid transit network with more than 100 stops along eight routes that will offer high frequency service designed to get people to their destination faster, and less expensively, than by car.

全国范围内正掀起升级公交系统的热潮，此类系统以更快捷、便捷且可靠的公交服务为核心，即巴士快速交通系统（Bus Rapid Transit），简称BRT。BRT系统通常采用定点停靠的运营模式，在全美及全球各大都会区的固定线路上设置专用公交道。Flash是一条规划中的BRT网络，共设8条线路、100余个站点，将提供高频次公交服务，旨在让乘客以比自驾更快捷、更经济实惠的方式抵达目的地。该图层由MCDOT维护。该数据视图包含三类属性字段：线路编号（Route Number）、运行方向（dir_name，对应direction）以及运营状态（Status）。如有疑问，请联系Justin Willits。
