Past studies
Network Next (2021)
In 2019, Metro Transit launched Network Next, a 20-year plan to expand and improve the bus network. In 2020, the project focused on identifying the next arterial BRT lines. Nineteen potential arterial BRT corridors were studied. Ridership, equity, and cost were factors considered. Based on feedback from public engagement, the Como/Maryland Avenue corridor was recommended for near-term implementation. In March 2021, the Metropolitan Council acted to name the corridor as the METRO H Line. For more information, visit metrotransit.org/network-next.
