Building on the East Busway is a planning effort that will explore opportunities for new stations, transit-oriented development, and multimodal improvements along the Martin Luther King, Jr. East Busway.
This plan has three (3) major components:
Wilkinsburg Station Area and Brushton Station Area Plans
After 18 months and three rounds of collaborative community conversations, the Wilkinsburg and Brushton Station Area Plan is complete. PRT will be moving forward with the next phase of design in 2024. You can review the project website at the link below and come back to this page to stay up-to-date as the project moves forward. A special thanks to the communities of Wilkinsburg and Homewood for all your time, input, and hospitality during the planning process!
Infill Station Procedure
Provide a clear and transparent process to make infill station decisions for busways and develop indicators to assess the pros and cons of any potential station site and differentiate the benefits/drawbacks among multiple station possibilities using PRT's values.
Coming Soon!
Additional (Infill) East Busway Stations
Conceptual station area plans for up to three new infill stations along the East Busway that address station access, station design, and transit-oriented development opportunities.
