Route map

Zhengzhou BRT Route B2 is a bus rapid transit route operated by Zhengzhou Bus. It is the 2nd route with dedicated bus lanes in Zhengzhou BRT.

History

The route was commenced on 26 January 2014, operating on Changchun Road, Lianhua Street, Ruida Road, Huagong Road, Rantun Road and Nongye Road.[1]

Due to the construction of Nongye Expressway, the route was diverted from Nongye Road to Dongfeng Road on 21 July 2015.[2] After the completion of Nongye Expressway with new island platforms under the elevated highway, the east section of the route returned to Nongye Road on 26 May 2017.[3]

In 2019, trolleybus overhead wires were installed under the Nongye Elevated for conversion of B2 to an eBRT corridor, preparing for the return of trolleybuses to Zhengzhou.[4][5] Trolleybus operation in service began on 1 January 2021.[6]
