The Tasmanian Government is releasing the Greater Hobart Rapid Bus Network Strategic Business Case.
The Report makes it clear a bus rapid transit network will best meet Greater Hobart's economic, social, environmental and urban development objectives.
Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Kerry Vincent said this was one piece of the puzzle.
"The Report makes it clear Greater Hobart needs a transport solution - and rapid buses provide a flexible and scalable option," Minister Vincent said.
"Rapid buses meet Greater Hobart's needs and are capable of serving all three major transport corridors.
"This proposal is also the most cost-effective and fastest option to deliver – meaning Tasmanians will get the benefits sooner rather than later.
"When working with other public transport options, like ferries and other buses, we can get our biggest city moving a whole lot smoother.
"For thousands of daily commuters, it will mean quicker, more predictable and far more convenient transport in and out of the city every day.
"It means education is a bit closer, work is a bit easier and accessing services can be a breeze.
"We look forward to progressing the more detailed business case for the northern corridor – our first priority."
