caption_attribution_description: English: A southbound C Line bus at 6th Street and Nicollet Mall in 2019. This is a 60-foot diesel bus from New Flyer.
context_page_description: The METRO B Line is a planned bus rapid transit route in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The route will operate mostly on Lake Street in Minneapolis before crossing the Mississippi River into St. Paul and operating mostly on Selby Avenue and ending in downtown St. Paul. The route was identified in Metro Transit's 2014 Arterial Transitway Corridors Study as one of eleven local routes to be upgraded to bus rapid transit. The route will have "train-like" features to speed up service, such as signal priority, all-door boarding, further stop spacing, and specialized vehicles. Planning and design is currently underway until 2021, with construction slated for 2022.
