Answering Your Transit Plan Questions
We’re answering your questions about Gwinnett’s Transit Plan! Find your questions below or email us at Transit@GwinnettCounty.com.
How is technology included in the Transit Plan?
- Ride Gwinnett app: Customers can download the Ride Gwinnett app to book their microtransit and paratransit trips. On the app, customers can set their pick-up and drop-off location, select the date and time of their trip, and set the number of passengers. Customers can also see the Lawrenceville, Snellville, and paratransit zones.
- Transit signal priority: Quick Ride (BRT Lite) and Rapid Ride (BRT) have onboard technology that communicates with traffic signals so that the traffic light changes to green or stays green longer as the bus is approaching. This technology ensures faster, timelier, and more reliable trips since traffic signals can cause delays.
- Queue jumps: Quick Ride (BRT Lite) and Rapid Ride (BRT) travel in bus-only lanes that receive special traffic signals that allow the bus to travel ahead of other cars. While other cars are stopped at the red light, your bus would get a head start and jump ahead of traffic.
Is MARTA included in this Transit Plan?
Is heavy rail included in this plan?
Many of us are reliant on our cars, and that’s okay! We just want you to have more options for getting to different places, even the airport. Also, any cars taken off the roads will reduce congestion for everyone. And remember, some of your neighbors — even your kids or parents — don’t have cars or are unable to drive.
I’m a car driver. Can we invest in more car lanes?
Roads can only be expanded so far before there is no available land to make them wider. This is what creates congestion in high-traffic areas.
