If the Bus Rapid Transit Project is built, who would pay for any work needed on the street?
AC Transit will fully pay for the re-pavement of the bus lanes as part of the BRT implementation. 2. The on-going maintenance of the bus lane could potentially be funded by AC Transit using federal and/or state transportation funding which in some cases is designated specifically for maintenance of “fixed guideways” such as dedicated bus lanes. Each city would be responsible for the on-going maintenance for the rest of the roadway not included in the bus lanes. This is a significant benefit for Cities approving dedicated bus lanes because the city’s obligation for on-going road repair would be less than half of what it is today and would remain so as long as the dedicated lanes exist.
