Welcome to RFTA's updated BRT website! BRT is a rubber tire transit service that combines stations, vehicles, running ways, a flexible operating plan, and technology into a high quality, customer focused service that is fast, reliable, comfortable and cost efficient. The new BRT service is called VelociRFTA. The route is shown here.
The goal of the VelociRFTA BRT project is to improve RFTA's operations and facilities to be faster, more convenient, and more comfortable. BRT combines the flexibility and cost savings of buses with the efficiency, speed, reliability, and amenities of rail.
This website contains a wealth of information on the components of BRT, service plans and stations, costs and funding, project history and upcoming schedule, and much more. You can also provide feedback and ask questions about the system. Just click on any of the menu tabs above to get started.
