Bus rapid transit (BRT) uses specialized buses that run in dedicated traffic lanes to efficiently transport large numbers of riders to their destinations. BRT systems feature many of the amenities of light rail, like frequent service, traffic signal priority, ticket vending machines, shelters and benches, while providing communities with a lower-cost, more flexible transit solution.
The UTA system currently offers two BRT lines:
- Utah Valley Express (UVX) — a ten-mile line from Provo Central Station to Orem Central Station. Zero Fare ends August 18, 2024. Learn more.
- Ogden Express (OGX) — a five-mile line connecting Ogden Central Station to McKay-Dee Hospital via Weber State University. Zero fare for three years (August 2023-2026).
