The Dundas Street BRT would be a major east-west corridor for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, extending 40 kilometres (25 miles) along Dundas Street from the eastern terminus of Kipling station in Toronto, which connects to Line 2 Bloor–Danforth subway, to Waterdown in Hamilton as the western terminus. It would also make connections with the proposed Hurontario LRT and GO Transit's Milton line. The estimated capital cost is $600 million.[1]

The bus rapid transit line was previously proposed to have its western terminus at Brant Street in Burlington, where it would connect to a future rapid transit line on Brant Street that would proceed south to the Burlington GO Station and Downtown Burlington.[3]
