Zhengzhou BRT Route B1 is a bus rapid transit route operated by Zhengzhou Bus. The route is the first ever route with dedicated bus lanes in Zhengzhou BRT.

History

The route was officially commenced on 28 May 2009, together with 8 other feeder routes. The route was initially a loop line running on Nongye Road, Zhongzhou Avenue, Weilai Road, Hanghai Road and Tongbai Road.[1]

Due to the construction of Zhengzhou Metro Line 5 on Hanghai Road and Tongbai Road and the construction of Nongye Expressway above Nongye Road, most platforms of the route on these three roads have been removed. Currently, services of the route on Nongye Road has been suspended.
