The city of Madison unveiled new State Street bus stop designs on Monday for the planned Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system coming in 2024. The plan includes smaller, transparent bus stops in response to State Street business concerns that previous larger concept designs would block storefronts and be bad for business.
“I believe that we can and in fact must accommodate the legitimate concerns raised by businesses owners, and at the same time reap the benefits of a rapid transit system for our residents, economy and our transportation system,” Madison mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway said at a Monday press conference.
