Community shares input on station access and design

This summer, the Rush Line Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Project reached a new milestone with project design plans 15% completed. To inform the ongoing design of the Rush Line BRT, we asked community members to complete a survey about how they prefer to access transit and what their priorities are for station amenities and the boarding experience. 

The survey received 471 responses from residents of all communities along the Rush Line BRT route. Key topics of interest included personal safety, pedestrian safety, landscaping, bicycle access and parking options.

For more details on what we heard, you can read a summary of the survey results here (PDF).
