AtlantaMARTA Rapid Summerhill BRTMetropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority - - - 8 km (5.0 mi) Under construction

MARTA's first rapid bus line with some BRT features is currently under construction. The construction is scheduled to be completed in 2025 with revenue service beginning in late 2025. The 5-mile (8-kilometer) line will run from downtown Atlanta, through Summerhill, and end at the Atlanta Beltline. The line, named the "MARTA Rapid Summerhill", will utilize new 60-foot (18-meter) articulated electric buses. Only 85% of the route will have bus lanes which are not separated from general traffic. General traffic may use the bus lanes to access street parking, right-turns, and driveways. It is expected that Rapid Summerhill is most similar to NYC's Select Bus Service (SBS).

Bogotá TransMilenio Consorcio Express, Gmovil, BMO Sur, Connexion Móvil, Somos K, SI18, Somos Bogotá Usme 4 December 2000 12 143 114.4 km (71.1 mi) Bogotá's segregated, four-lane TransMilenio system has a maximum peak-load capacity of 45,000 passengers per hour per direction (pphpd) on its busiest line.[174] The system uses modular median stations that serve both directions and enable prepaid, multiple-door, level boarding.[174] The average stop time is 24 seconds. Trunk-line terminals have integrated bicycle parking; the fare card opens a gate to a secure bicycle parking area. Two lanes in each direction permit "Quickways" (local service on the inside lane combined with express service, skipping four or five stations at a time).[175] TransMilenio was described as a "model BRT system" in the National Bus Rapid Transit Institute's May 2006 report. It serves Bogotá with high-capacity, articulated, three-door buses. Bi-articulated buses are used on the busiest routes, and a smart card system is used for fare collection. Despite its large capacity, Transmilenio had problems with overcrowding.[176] 2 Silver + 5 Gold BRT corridors certified (2013).[2]
