Despite providing millions of bus rides each year (13.8 million in 2018), Cincinnati’s bus system is severely lacking in basic infrastructure.

We believe bus riders deserve a place to sit. Thanks to generous donations of time and money, we have built benches to place at the busiest stops.

Bus-only lane

Beginning in the winter of 2018, the Better Bus Coalition successfully advocated for a bus-only lane on Main St in downtown Cincinnati. The approximately four-block stretch (between 6th St and Court St) was implemented in early November 2018. We are in the process of identifying and advocating for more bus-only lanes throughout the city.

With buses carrying up to 40+ passengers at a time, prioritizing bus travel during rush hour is the most efficient way to move people in Cincinnati. Learn more about the Main St bus-only lane here.
