- The HealthLine (formerly known as the Silver Line and as the Euclid Corridor Transportation Project) is a bus rapid transit (BRT) line run by the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority in Cleveland and East Cleveland, Ohio, United States. The line runs along Euclid Avenue from Public Square in downtown Cleveland to the Louis Stokes Station at Windermere in East Cleveland. It began operation on October 24, 2008. Its current name was the result of a naming rights deal with the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals of Cleveland. The HealthLine is denoted with a silver color and abbreviated simply as HL on most RTA publications.
The HealthLine's ridership peaked at 5.08 million rides in 2014, but has since declined by over 25% through 2018, with 3.7 million rides that year.
The Healthline is tied with Connecticut Transit's CTfastrak as the second-top rated BRT system in the United States each with Silver rating according to the BRT Standard. Only ABQ RIDE's Albuquerque Rapid Transit has achieved the top rating of Gold. ~Wikipedia

I like the island platforms, and the all-door boarding on these buses. Looks like they did a good job with this
Interesting use of left doors and left lane, reducing interference from cars and trucks at the curb.
Nice, and I see that the TSP thing has been reactivated.
To my pleasant surprise, this was a very interesting video. There seemed plenty of buses. How often do they run? And though the video was filmed on a Sunday, there were passengers! That contrasts with your recent video of Cleveland light rail. Doors on both sides of the bus is ingenious;. I have only ever seen that once, in Essen in Germany. (Those buses have since been withdrawn.)
I believe the HealthLine runs every 15 minutes, which I feel constitutes a headway that's a bit too long to be called BRT, but given that this system seems to actually have dedicated, center-running bus lanes for most of the route, unlike most US "BRT," I'm not gonna hate on it.
@@aynt_2065 Thank you very much for the information.
this is a good brt good job ohio
This inspired the Albuquerque Rapid Transit system.
The only gold standard BRT in the United States. HealthLine, along with CTFastrak in Connecticut, have been settling for silver to this day.
It's an okay BRT lines, what the DOT/FTA calls gold standard, but nothing like Bogata or Curitiba. Those cities have _real_ BRT. The Cleveland RTA could widen the platforms and install enclosures with platform screen doors though, and build wide and enclosed platforms at stops that don't have them so the passengers can be nice and cozy on a cold winter's day.
Well back then we used to have new flyer 60 LFR‘s, and when we ordered these RTA made a mistake they didn’t do the correct measurements. The bus doesn’t lineup on the platform correctly when we ordered the old buses they measured it and had all the platforms built exactly the same height of the bus but now that we have the new buses they don’tmatch exactly so the bus drivers have to be 2 inches away from the curb
probably the cheapest health related service in the entire USA...
