Gwinnett County commissioners on Tuesday approved a $17 billion transit plan, which includes a mix of regular and rapid bus service, which would triple the number of people with access to transit.

It also has a microtransit or shared ride that will connect the rest of the county with an on-demand service by 2033.

“You will be able to get anywhere in Gwinnett without a car. With this new plan, they have created a transit network that provides an alternative for everyone in Gwinnett,” said Commissioner Ben Ku.
