Editing Amman (section)

===Bus and taxi===

The city has frequent bus connections to other cities in Jordan, as well as to major cities in neighboring countries; the latter are also served by service taxis. Internal transport is served by a number of bus routes and taxis. Service taxis, which most often operate on fixed routes, are readily available and inexpensive. The two main bus and taxi stations are Abdali (near the [[King Abdullah I Mosque|King Abdullah Mosque]], the [[Parliament of Jordan|Parliament]] and Palace of Justice) and the Raghadan Central Bus Station near the Roman theater in the city center. Popular Jordanian bus company services include JETT and Al-Mahatta. Taxis are the most common way to get around in Amman due their high availability and inexpensiveness.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://studiesabroad.com/programs/country/jordan/city/amman/cultureCorner/transportation | title=Transportation in Amman | access-date=2 September 2015 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150925105718/http://studiesabroad.com/programs/country/jordan/city/amman/cultureCorner/transportation | archive-date=25 September 2015 | url-status=dead }}</ref>

The [[Amman Bus]] and the [[Amman Bus Rapid Transit]] public transportation systems currently serve the city. Construction work on the BRT system started in 2010, but was halted soon after amid feasibility concerns. Resuming in 2015, the first route of the BRT system was inaugurated in 2021, and the second in 2022. Another BRT route [[Amman-Zarqa Bus Rapid Transit|connecting Amman with Zarqa]] started operations in May 2024.<ref name=BRT>{{cite web|url=https://www.jordantimes.com/news/local/brt-offers-new-commuting-experience-trial-run-continues|title=BRT offers new commuting experience as trial run continues|accessdate=8 February 2022|date=29 July 2021|work=the Jordan Times|archive-date=8 February 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220208010439/https://www.jordantimes.com/news/local/brt-offers-new-commuting-experience-trial-run-continues|url-status=live}}</ref>

The BRT system in Amman runs on 2 routes: the first from [[Sweileh]] in northwest Amman to the Ras Al-Ain area next to [[downtown Amman]], and the second from Sweileh to Mahatta terminal in eastern Amman. Both routes meet at the Sports City intersection. The first route is currently served by three lines: 98, 99 and 100.<ref name=BRT/> Ticket price for all lines of Amman Bus and Amman BRT are bought either online via the Amman Bus mobile application or as a rechargeable card in major terminals. Passengers scan their cards or QR codes on phone when boarding the bus, where the price ticket is subtracted from the available balance. The buses are air-conditioned, accessible, monitored with security cameras and have free internet service.<ref name=BRT/>
