![]() UTA Board member Beth Holbrook asked if a BRT could be converted into a TRAX line someday if demand for that arose. She adds that the Point of the Mountain BRT under consideration is “what we call a gold-standard BRT,” which would allow level boarding from a platform (instead of climbing stairs), exclusive lanes for almost 90% of its route and off-board fare collection.īecause of some geologic challenges that trains would face at the steep Point of the Mountain but a BRT bus would not, Garver said a BRT system would also be able to offer an extra station at the prison site area - and is another reason for selecting it as the preferred alternative. Garver told the UTA board that when people are inside a BRT bus, “You wouldn’t know that you are not on rail because the vehicles are almost like” train cars in design. UTA is about to build a BRT line between downtown Ogden and Weber State University, and is studying other possible BRTs from northern Utah County to Orem/Provo (which could tie into a Point of the Mountain system), and from Davis County to downtown Salt Lake City. It also offers service every 6 minutes at peak times, often quicker than TRAX. The Utah Valley Express BRT system in Orem and Provo has rivaled the TRAX Green Line in Salt Lake County for ridership, but that may be helped because the UVX has enjoyed free fares since it opened because of a federal grant.
