What would the construction impacts be? When would they occur?
Due to the planning and project development process, construction impacts will not occur until the project is implemented in 4 to 6 years. BRT can be built a few blocks at a time while maintaining transit service and auto access to businesses during construction. Since construction of BRT is fairly straightforward in most sections (similar to a resurfacing/curbing project), disruption will amount to a matter of weeks and months, not years (impacts could be more extensive at Fillmore and at Masonic, depending on the designs). Construction impacts will be significantly minimized compared with light-rail transit or subway construction.
