Miami-Dade's first bus rapid transit service runs 20 miles along US-1 from Dadeland South to Florida City on a rebuilt dedicated busway protected by gate arms and prioritised at rush hour, calling at 14 new BRT stations with air-conditioned waiting areas. The county calls it the longest all-electric BRT service in the nation, paid for with $100 million each from its half-penny transportation surtax, the Florida Department of Transportation and the Federal Transit Administration.

MARTA started service on the Rapid A-Line, a five-mile route with 14 new stations linking downtown Atlanta to Capitol Gateway, Summerhill, Peoplestown and the BeltLine's Southside Trail, much of it in dedicated bus lanes. Construction continues along the corridor, with temporary stops standing in at five stations until final revenue service in the autumn.

Routes 15 and 15L move into new center-running bus-only lanes on East Colfax Avenue between Broadway and Colorado Boulevard, with passengers boarding at new island stations sheltered by steel arches. It is the first stretch of RTD's 8.5-mile bus rapid transit corridor from downtown Denver to I-225 in Aurora to carry buses, with full BRT service planned for late 2027 or early 2028.
