Bus Rapid Transit

We are fortunate on Grandview Hill to have a local bus that provides public transportation to various locations in Provo and beyond. Eventually, this bus line will connect to other modes of transportation, such as Frontrunner, the commuter train that will take passengers to Salt Lake and to points as far north as Brigham City and as far south as Payson.

A bus rapid transit project is also in the planning stages that will serve Provo and Orem. According to an article in the Salt Lake Tribune, there will be an information open house regarding the Provo-Orem Bus Rapid Transit project on Thursday, May 5th.  Here is a link to the article.

The Environmental Assessment (EA) is already complete and available for public inspection.  Locally, you can see a copy of the EA at the City Engineers Office of Provo City and at the Provo City Library, as well as at the libraries at BYU and UVU.  The official comment period for this EA is from April 12, 2011 to May 13, 2011. For more details about the EA, click here.
