Oakland needs your input on the proposed plan for BRT. Come to one of seven planned community meetings to make sure City Council hears your voice.
Similar to light rail without tracks, BRT features bus-only lanes, level boarding and fare payment at stations to achieve faster and more reliable service. East Bay BRT is proposed to run along Telegraph and International, from Berkeley to Oakland to San Leandro.
Share your thoughts before City Council votes in spring!
