The Broward County public transportation system is implementing TransitFORWARD 2040.

- A real plan to facilitate mobility for everyone -

 Broward County Transit (BCT) has officially unveiled Transit FORWARD 2040,  a 15-year roadmap to build a better, more reliable public transportation system that works for people who live in and visit the area.

​

The plan had its first major public presentation at the Alexandra P. Davis Multi-Service Complex in Miramar, and is now touring Broward County with scheduled presentations.

"Those who participated in the public meeting were receptive to the Transit FORWARD 2040 plan. Education and citizen participation are essential to turning this vision into something that truly benefits everyone in Broward County," said Commissioner Alexandra P. Davis.

Transit FORWARD 2040 is based on real data: how people travel, where growth is happening, who needs better access to jobs, schools, doctors and everyday destinations.

“Transit FORWARD 2040 is a comprehensive community plan based on scientific data, best practice analysis, and community engagement. It allows us to move beyond simply adjusting routes and reimagine how we connect people to their lives,” said Coree Cuff Lonergan, BCT CEO and General Manager. “Our primary goal is to eliminate transit-less areas in Broward County. By utilizing microtransit and high-frequency corridors, we are building a system as flexible and dynamic as the residents we serve. We aspire to make BCT the preferred mobility choice for everyone in Broward County, and we look forward to future community meetings to gather more input.”

The plan focuses on residents' requests: shorter wait times, increased night and weekend service, and better ways to connect neighborhoods to major bus lines. One of the most significant changes is the introduction of microtransit: smaller, already in-demand minibuses that pick up passengers near their homes and drop them off at major public transport hubs.

The plan also includes faster and more frequent service on the busiest corridors, better bus stops with real-time arrival information and shaded areas, an improved tracking system so passengers always know when the next bus will arrive, and a change from the old approach of fixed routes only.

The Transit FORWARD 2040 program aims to make public transportation the first choice for daily commutes, helping to reduce traffic congestion, decrease emissions for cleaner air, save energy, reduce personal expenses (gasoline, parking, etc.), improve access to jobs, education, and healthcare (especially for those without a car), and support the continued growth of Broward County.

The Transit FORWARD 2040 program is being rolled out countywide with community presentations in each of the nine Broward Commission districts, beginning with Commission District 4, led by Commissioner Lamar P. Fisher, on April 7, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Hagen Park Community Center, 2020 Wilton Drive, in Wilton Manors.
