A north-south version of the Pulse is on its way and GRTC wants your input on its route, lanes, stations, and more.

The new bus rapid transit line is set to take riders from Brookhill Azalea Shopping Center all the way to Springline at District 60 in Chesterfield. It goes through downtown Richmond via Leigh, 9th, and 8th Streets.

GRTC has released preliminary concepts for several sections of the route. The concepts for Chamberlayne Avenue and Midlothian Turnpike have options for both curb-running and median lanes.

Share your thoughts at a virtual public meeting this Thursday, Sept. 19 at 12 p.m. Bonus: If learning about the future of public transit isn’t exciting enough, you could also win a $50 gift card at the end of the event.

Can’t make the meeting? Fill out the community survey, which will remain open until Monday, Sept. 30. Participants will also be entered into a $50 gift card drawing.
