The Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is an efficient transport system for cities that need to quickly expand its network of public transport, with minimal investment compared to other systems such as the Light Train, and providing a quality service to users. The BRT uses dedicated corridors to reduce user travel time, but these runners is within the existing road network, therefore it is necessary to implement automation systems that can coordinate BRT operations with other modes transport of city. This automation system, known as ITS, has features that perform this management, how to act at the traffic lights along the corridor in order to prioritize the passage of BRT also has other features in other areas that allow proper operation to BRT. This article brings to discussion the functionality of a BRT in order to define a map of required functionality for users, operators, managers, equipment providers, application providers and other interested parties can use as a guide for the execution of its activities.
