⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Van Ness Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Observations

Here are some observations along SFMTA's brand-new Van Ness Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridor! Starting at Market Street, we slowly make our way up Van Ness as far north as Pacific Avenue, filming every MUNI and Golden Gate Transit bus along the way. After decades of planning and setbacks, Van Ness BRT officially opened on April 1, 2022. This was filmed one week later on April 8. From Wikipedia: "Van Ness Bus Rapid Transit is a bus rapid transit corridor on the Van Ness Avenue thoroughfare in San Francisco, California, United States. The 2-mile (3.2 km) line, which runs between Mission Street and Lombard Street has dedicated center bus lanes and nine stations. It was built as part of the $346 million Van Ness Improvement Project, which also included utility replacement and pedestrian safety features. Van Ness Bus Rapid Transit is used by several San Francisco Municipal Railway (Muni) lines including the 49 Van Ness–Mission, as well as three Golden Gate Transit routes. "Streetcar service on Van Ness Avenue began in 1915; it was replaced by trolleybuses in 1950–51, with diesel bus routes later added. Planning for a rail line on the corridor began in 1989 with the passage of a ballot measure. By 1995, it was to be the last of four major rail corridors constructed in the city. The planned mode was replaced with bus rapid transit in 2003, with studies and environmental analysis lasting the next decade. Construction began in June 2016; the planned completion in 2019 was delayed several times. Service began on April 1, 2022." The corridor is utilized by the 49 Van Ness/Mission as well as a few Golden Gate Transit routes, all of which were captured in this video. Although it is called BRT, the corridor is more so a set of glorified red bus lanes. It features traffic signal priority so that buses get a faster journey, but buses are ultimately still waiting for traffic at most intersections they encounter. There is no level boarding or on-platform fare payment, leading many to label it as "bus rapid transit creep," an term used for when a project that claims to be BRT omits key features that would make it an effective BRT system. Still, the lanes are a welcome improvement for transit along Van Ness since they are never stuck in car traffic to the right of them. This can lead to some very satisfying instances of packed buses zooming past congestion right next to them.
