THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE IS HOLDING A SECOND ROUND OF PUBLIC HEARINGS ON A PROPOSED NEW BUS SYSTEM FOR CENTRAL AVENUE. A-B-Q RIDE'S RICK DE REYES SAYS THEY DON'T HAVE A COST ESTIMATE YET FOR "BUS RAPID TRANSIT", OR B-R-T, SINCE IT'S STILL JUST AN IDEA…BUT THEY'LL KNOW MORE BY LATE SUMMER OR EARLY FALL.
B-R-T WOULD USE A DEDICATED LANE ALONG CENTRAL, WITH FEWER STOPS. SIX HEARINGS WILL BE HELD BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF MAY. THE FIRST IS TUESDAY NIGHT AT 6:00 AT THE OLD MAIN LIBRARY AT 423 CENTRAL NORTHEAST.
