MAX vs. Max[edit]

I brought this up on the TRAX talk page, but it's relevant here too. According to this policy page, we should be using the spelling "Max" instead of MAX, since it's pronounced as a word instead of individual letters (like UTA). If no one objects in the next few days, I'll move this page to Max (UTA) and update it to use the spelling Max.

No objections. Max it is. Thatotherperson (talk/contribs) 13:18, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Use of 'Max' naming[edit]

With the death of the 35M line, 'Max' branding is not used on any current or planned line, nor can I find it on the UTA website. The UVX line is listed on a page simply titled Bus Rapid Transit. This leads me to believe that UTA no longer intends to use this branding, though I can find nowhere where this is confirmed. Dknelson9876 (talk) 02:55, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that MAX is probably dead. I would think the article should be moved to 'Utah Transit Authority Bus Rapid Transit' or something similar. MAX was only ever the formal name for the 35m; it doesn't seem like the other BRT routes are planned to use MAX in their official designations. Darkage7[Talk] 18:55, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Retract my former comment. On reconsideration, if we think this page needs to exist, we could rename it Utah Transit Authority Bus Rapid Transit routes. My only concern is that these lines may not meet the global standards for BRT. RickyCourtney (talk) 19:46, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
To your former comment, there is already an article specifically about 3500 South MAX, this article seems like it's trying to be about all of UTA's BRT lines, current, former, and planned. Currently there's a UTA TRAX page, but also specific Blue Line (TRAX), Red Line (TRAX), and Green Line (TRAX) pages. The article name could certainly use some workshopping, since UTA hasn't been nice enough to brand all their BRTs the same way they've branded all Light Rail as TRAX.

Yes, my apologies, I forgot about the 3500 South MAX page when I made that comment. RickyCourtney (talk) 20:49, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
