The word 'BRT' is considered correct and is usable in written English.
BRT stands for Bus Rapid Transit and refers to a high-quality bus-based transit system that combines the speed and efficiency of rail with the lower cost and flexibility of buses. It typically includes features such as dedicated bus lanes, off-board fare collection, and priority at intersections. Example: The city of Seattle has implemented a new BRT system to improve public transportation and reduce traffic congestion. The new BRT line will have dedicated lanes and stations, making it easier and faster for commuters to get around the city.
He contends that the elevated, steel-wheels-on-steel-tracks system is too expensive for the city's small tax base, and instead supports building either a street-level light-rail line or a bus rapid transit (BRT) network, in which buses would run on dedicated lanes on surface streets.

Even research related to the BRT is controversial.

Soon, Delhi's roads won't be able to handle the traffic, transportation experts say, making introduction of systems like the BRT necessary.
