Green Line Corridor Study
Bloomington Transit is studying the development of a new East-West transit corridor that would provide frequent bus service to a defined corridor providing connections to downtown Bloomington and Indiana University as well as local businesses and housing.
About the Green Line Study
As Bloomington grows, so too has the need for sustainable, affordable transportation options.
Bloomington Transit is studying the feasability of the Green Line;
an East-West Bus Rapid Transit Corridor.
This crosstown corridor would connect vital destinations utilizing high-frequency service, enhanced stations, and advanced vehicles.
How would the Green Line
improve transit in Bloomington?
Green Line Intial Concept Design
Service
The Green Line would provide service seven days a week.
On weekdays, the service would operate at least every 15 minutes for at least 14 hours. On weekends, the service would operate at least every 30 minutes for at least 10 hours.
Corridor Design
The route in this study would follow 3rd Street, Patterson St, and 2nd Street through most of the corridor.
The stations in this study would serve colleges, local businesses, and housing.
The study is considering routing options through downtown and the IU campus:
Between W 2nd Street and W 3rd Street
-
Via S Rogers Street
-
Via S Walnut Street (northbound) and S Washington Street (southbound)
Between Dunn Street and S High Street
-
Via E 3rd Street (eastbound and westbound)
-
Via E 3rd Street (westbound) and E Atwater Avenue (eastbound, returning to E 3rd Street via either S Mitchell Street or S High Street)
