Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) has a positive impact on life in cities. It can save lives, reduce local air pollution, increase physical activity, and catalyze economic activity. This video, produced by EMBARQ and filmed in Mexico City and Istanbul, summarizes the type and range of impacts BRTs can have on users, the environment and on public health.
