First BRT route to link Fengxian with Pudong

The city’s first BRT route, or Bus Rapid Transit, will be completed in 2017. It will link a residential area in Fengxian District to Oriental Sports Center in the Pudong New Area.

The 33.5 kilometer long route will benefit 220,000 residents of Nanqiao New Town in Fengxian. BRT is a faster and more efficient bus service which has its own dedicated lanes, thus avoiding delays. The new route will include both specialized routes for public buses as well as mixed routes which it will share with other vehicles during non-peak hours. It is expected to cut the trip between Nanqiao New Town and Oriental Sports Center by half an hour to about 45 minutes.
