Press Releases

The final segment of the MAX guideway, a road solely for the use of MAX Bus Rapid Transit vehicles, has been paved. Just south of Prospect Road, construction crews completed paving operations on Thursday, January 30. This marks the conclusion of major, substantive construction of the MAX BRT system. Some finish and landscaping work remains to be completed this spring. 

There are approximately three miles of new transit-only concrete guideway throughout the five mile MAX corridor. The exclusive guideway allows MAX travel times to remain consistent, regardless of traffic jams or accidents, so passengers will be able to rely on MAX's travel time. 

 With the construction substantially complete, testing and the training of drivers for activation of the MAX BRT system will begin in February, before MAX is open for public use in May.
