High cost-effectiveness
Quick to deploy
Strong support for transit oriented development
Requires political support
- Street space allocation
- Enforcement
- Operations plan at time of system design & planning

BRT Impacts on Land Values
Rodriguez and Targa (2004) before/after comparison with control • rental prices decrease 1.3% for every added minute of
walking time from Bogota BRT
• additional US$439 to $653 property value for each 0.1 kilometer of distance to Botota BRT stations
Mendieta and Perdomo (2007) spatial hedonic pricing model • within 0.5 km of Bogota BRT stations: price premium 5-17%.

Conclusions
High quality transit - rail or BRT - supports TOD
High quality BRT likely to support TOD and job access in more places, faster than rail, given a limited budget
