Previous Project Engagement Team Appearances
MAY 2025
In May of 2025, the project engagement team updated the public on MetroRapid’s progress. Station locations were refined with community and stakeholder based on input provided throughout the winter and spring. New station names were also revealed during this time, with some that were updated due to public input. To learn more about what was presented to the public, please, see the documents attached below.
FEBRUARY - MARCH 2025
In the spring of 2025, the project engagement team collected community feedback to help name the stations. Proposed names were presented to key community members and stakeholders for their input and suggestion. With their help, the project was one step closer to deciding on station names that were relevant and recognizable to the people who lived near them. To learn more about what was presented to the public, please, see the documents attached below.

DECEMBER 2024
In early December of 2024, public meetings were held to discuss future BRT station locations. The project team took several factors into account when selecting where MetroRapid stations would be placed including population density, existing bus stations, and public input. The public was given the opportunity to recommend their ideal BRT station location based on what would be the safest, quickest, and most convenient for their community members. To learn more about what was presented to the public, please, see the documents attached below.
SEPTEMBER - NOVEMBER 2024
Throughout the fall of 2024, Metro collected feedback on both potential station designs and potential names/logos for Cincinnati’s Bus Rapid Transit service. Three station design renderings were presented to the public from which they chose their favorite. The winner was the Suspended Roof design. Similarly, three logo concepts were presented for input. With public and stakeholder feedback, the name MetroRapid was selected.
