Taichung BRT Blue Line
The Taichung BRT Blue Line (Chinese: 臺中快捷巴士）was an articulated bus Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system located in Taichung, Taiwan. It operated between Taichung TRA Station and Providence University. The line served 21 stations. It was the first BRT line in Taiwan. The line was converted to a dedicated bus lane for conventional buses on July 8, 2015 and the BRT is no longer in operation.
== Design and construction==
A metro system in Taichung was planned for nearly twenty years, but the BRT routes were drawn in 2011. The Taichung City Government proposed an idea to construct a BRT line instead of a MRT line between Shalu and downtown Taichung, because the construction of the BRT would be 25 times cheaper than the MRT.〔Huang, H.-J., Liao, C.-Y., Tseng, C., & Lin, L.-T. (n.d.). (Taichung BRT design record (PDF) ).〕 The line is built on Taiwan Blvd, which is the main road in Taichung and also the most congested.
Articulated buses were legalized in February 2012, and construction on the line started in November 2013. The line opened for the public on July 27, 2014.〔(BRT大事紀101年版 (BRT Major Events: 2012 (Fact sheet)) ) (in Chinese). Bus Rapid Transit of Taichung. January 1, 2013. Retrieved January 30, 2015.〕〔(BRT大事紀102年版 (BRT Major Events: 2013 (Fact sheet)) ) (in Chinese). Bus Rapid Transit of Taichung. January 1, 2014. Retrieved January 30, 2015.〕 Following the discontinuation of the BRT system and conversion into a standard bus lane, the articulated buses and stations continued to be used. The buses were renamed as #300 and now share the line with conventional low-floor buses. Smart cards now have to be swiped on the bus and the BRT equipment at the stations has been deactivated.
