Metrobús (Buenos Aires)

The Metrobús is a bus rapid transit (BRT) system in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It consists of dedicated bus lanes and stations designed to improve the speed and efficiency of public transportation in the city. The system aims to reduce traffic congestion and provide a more comfortable and reliable commuting experience for passengers.

The first Metrobús line opened in 2011 on Avenida Juan B. Justo, and the network has expanded since then to include several lines operating on major avenues throughout Buenos Aires. The buses used in the Metrobús system are typically low-floor vehicles designed for quick boarding and alighting. Stations are typically elevated platforms with pre-boarding fare collection, further speeding up the process.

The Metrobús is integrated with the city's other public transportation options, including the Buenos Aires Metro (Subte) and conventional bus lines. Passengers can use the SUBE card, an integrated electronic ticketing system, to pay for fares on the Metrobús and other modes of transport.

The implementation of the Metrobús has been credited with improving travel times for bus commuters, reducing air pollution in some areas, and enhancing the overall urban environment. It is an integral part of Buenos Aires' efforts to modernize its public transportation infrastructure.
