Feb 23, 2021 / 10:52 PM EST INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A state legislature bill that would likely kill a major expansion of bus rapid transit for IndyGo took a step forward Tuesday. Senate Bill 141 passed 32-to-17 with a few Republicans joining Senate Democrats in opposition. The bill now heads over to the House for consideration. Without exception, bus riders along 38th Street did not know their current bus line is slated to be replaced by the Purple Line, a bus rapid transit route to connect the former Fort Benjamin Harrison area in Lawrence to downtown Indianapolis. The proposed Purple Line would operate like the Red Line that now sends rapid transit buses between between the University of Indianapolis and the Broad Ripple business district.
