The city passed a 35 years transit plan, in 2015, to include 75 miles of BRT.
And the initial BRT line will only be completed in 2030?

It reminds me of the cliche "The food is terrible! And such small portions!"
I'm not a fan of BRT because it is often misused an allegedly cheaper but inferior alternative to rail, but it's still frustrating to see it proceeding at such a slow pace. I'd rather see Phoenix build BRT only in places where high capacity transit might be warranted but rail is not currently feasible (e.g. Bell Road) and reallocate the rest of the BRT funds to towards across-the-board improvements in bus service throughout the city, not to mention any light rail projects that can actually move forward.
