The South East Hampshire Bus Rapid Transit (also known as the Eclipse Busway) is a 3.4 kilometres (2.1 mi) unguided busway between Gosport and Fareham in the county of Hampshire, the road itself is called Henry Cort Way and is named after an ironware producer. The busway scheme is sponsored by Hampshire County Council using the route of the former Fareham to Gosport Line to reduce congestion on the parallel A32 between the towns.[1]
