AI Summary
This bill revises the definition of "major transit stop" under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to include a bus rapid transit station. Specifically, the bill defines "bus rapid transit" to include dedicated bus lanes, transit signal priority, all-door boarding, and defined stations, with a service frequency of 15 minutes or less during peak commute periods. This change expands the types of transit hubs that qualify for certain CEQA exemptions and streamlined review, which are intended to encourage transit-oriented development.
