BRTdata.org, a global database for bus rapid transit

Interactive platform tracks the growth and evolution of high performance bus systems worldwide

There is growing interest and demand for high quality bus systems as cities seek low-cost, sustainable urban transport solutions. As the number of systems in the world increases, current, accurate, and complete information about existing and planned systems becomes increasingly important but difficult to collect. 

The goal of BRTdata.org is to improve the sustainable transport community's access to reliable and current data about BRT and bus corridors currently in operation. The platform provides a convenient repository of data from a variety of sources including researchers, transit agencies, municipalities, and NGOs. BRTdata.org has been cited by the International Energy Agency (IEA), UN-HABITAT, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and the International Transport Forum, among other leading institutions.
