The first phase of the project has a total length of 21.1 kilometers with dedicated bus lanes on three trunk routes with a total of 29 stations.

History
With the rapidly growing population of the city, the government began to draw plans for a rapid transit system in 2003. The government predicted the city population to grow over 5 million by 2015 and invited the Japan International Cooperation Agency to design a master plan for transport in the city in June 2008.
A bus rapid transit and a metro transit system were proposed but the metro system was not approved due to the high construction and operational cost involved.
The project was placed under the Prime Minister’s office and a Dar Rapid Transit Agency (DART) was created through a government notice on 25 May 2007.
A 130 km bus rapid transit was planned to cover over 90% of the city’s population and the project was split into six phases due to the large investment required.
The initial project cost was financed by the world bank and the bank provided $180 million for the construction of the first phase.
