On 13-14 November the Future eBRT cities User Group met in Nantes, France. The main objective of the User Group is to promote the uptake of the eBRT2030 project’s concepts and results by stakeholders across the globe and to study the implementation of these systems around Europe and beyond. These meetings bring together PTOs and PTAs that seeks to implement BRT in their cities or to implement innovative solutions for their systems.

The meeting focused on the study of the implementation of the Nantes Busway, one of the most important and successful examples of BRT in Europe. Participants had a chance to take part in a technical visit to the local e-Busway line – Nantes BRT lines 4 and 5, which are part of an integrated network of high-capacity and priority lines that combine light-rail and BRT lines.

More User Group meetings will take place throughout the project to solidify the global reach of eBRT2030, stay tuned for more soon.
