IMBRT First Pilot Test - Futuristic Transportation System in Johor Bahru

The Iskandar Malaysia Bus Rapid Transit (IMBRT) has commenced its first phase pilot testing now as April 2021.
(ART: Automated Rapid Transit)

The ART is to enable a higher passenger capacity at a lower cost compared to LRT and will be able to run on clean energy sources such as electricity or hydrogen. It has a capacity of more than 300 passengers across three carriages. The buses have a top speed of 70 kmh and is capable run autonomously by reading virtual tracks using its sensors.
This high-capacity electric bus route through Persiaran Puteri Selatan, Jalan Laksamana 1 and 2 and Persiaran Dato’ Seri Amar before returning to the starting point.
The three-month programme will test the buses’ capabilities and demonstrate the use of green technology, in line with the Johor's modernisation of its public transport system. The Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) and other agencies will test electric and biodiesel buses from 9 local and international suppliers in conducting assessments, collecting feedback on their effectiveness and safety and securing approval for their use. The project is important to increase the mobility of Johoreans. This service will ensure an efficient, convenient and environmentally-friendly public transportation system, covering a wide range of areas.
The project's direct and main routes reach 2,043 kilometres or around 90% of Iskandar Malaysia’s populated areas. Once fully implemented, the IMBRT will be able to connect 55 feeder routes and 44 direct routes with the main route and its 33 stations.
