MAX is a bus rapid transit network operated by Calgary Transit in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. MAX forms a part of Calgary Transit's rapid transit network, along with the CTrain light rail system.[1]

The MAX system opened in November 2018 with three routes: MAX Orange, MAX Teal, and MAX Purple.[2] The MAX Yellow line opened in December 2019.[3] MAX routes are distinguished from Calgary's existing express bus network, branded as "BRT", by the use of dedicated transitway on three lines, heated shelters, real-time information, and elevated sidewalks.
