Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) has emerged as a cost-effective alternative to Light Rail Systems (LRT), yet its impact on urban land use remains understudied compared to rail-based transit systems. This study examines land use changes within a 0.5-mile buffer along the Red Line BRT corridor that passes through Apple Valley, Bloomington, Burnsville, and Eagan, Minnesota. Using before-after analysis ranging from 2010 to 2020, this study assesses and statistically describes the conversion of areas covered by other land uses to commercially and residentially oriented land uses post-BRT implementation in 2013. Results indicate a higher ratio of conversion within the buffer zone, suggesting some influence of the BRT corridor on land use dynamics, particularly in transitioning undeveloped land to single-family detached and retail/commercial uses.
