SUMMARY:NANA General meeting March 2023
DESCRIPTION:NANA General Meeting WHEN: On the 2nd Tuesday of each month from 6:30pm-8pm (Except August) WHERE: North Avondale Montessori School Cafetorium \n\n\n\nGuest speaker: Liz Peak\, President\, Regional Mobility Group\, LLC  \n\n\n\nTopic:  Reinvention continues with Bus Rapid Transit and Metro  \n\n\n\n\nThe closest comparison is if you’re familiar with taking rail; it moves faster through a corridor\, there’s off-board payment\, … a lot more convenient to go a long distance\, but it has the flexibility of being on rubber tires.” \nBrandy Jones\, senior vicepresident of external affairs for Metro\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBrady Jones explained the BRT difference to CityBeat in October. Jones said BRT is more like a train than a bus because of how infrequently it stops\, both for passengers and for traffic lights. Any BRT corridor will need its own dedicated bus lane to make the speed and efficiency of the rapid route possible. Because more riders will board BRT at once\, they’ll pay their fare in advance\, speedingup the process. Even though there will be fewer stops\, Jones says riders can expect a BRT bus to arrive every 10-15 minutes. The other BRT difference that speeds up the route is signal priority. “When a traffic signal realizes that a BRT bus is approaching – say there is a green light – it’s going to stay green longer to let the bus get through the corridor or just give the priority to the bus so you’re not getting stopped at as many lights as a car would\,” Jones said. “In some ways\, you may be able to get through the corridor faster than you can in your personal car.” \n\n\n\nThe Reading Road Corridor extends 12 miles from the intersection of Reading Road (U.S. 42) and S.R. 561/ Seymour Avenue to downtown Cincinnati. More than 40 cities in the U.S. have BRT\, including Boston\, New York\, Los Angeles\, Miami and\, closer to home\, Columbus\, Cleveland and Indianapolis. In addition\, Metro has conducted extensive research that has included a robust study that runs through March 2023\, in-person and virtual meetings\, a community survey\, discussion groups and more. \n\n\n\nFind additional information in the Events & Activities story here.
