Due to rapid unplanned development, versatile land use, rapid population growth, poor public transport system and increase of private car users, traffic problems are worsening day by day. The only mass transit is bus which is insufficient in terms of safety, capacity, comfort, and convenience. Considering the worsening congestion, it is high time to develop effective mass transit system such as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) as a means for achieving sustainable urban transport in the city

The Rockefeller Foundation and the Pratt Center for Community Development have coalesced around a transit solution called Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)—a high-performance system that combines the permanence, speed, and reliability of rail, with the flexibility of buses, at a fraction of the cost of a subway system. In the Foundation and Pratt’s report, Mobility and Equity for New York’s Transit-Starved Neighborhoods: The Case for Full-Featured Bus Rapid Transit, BRT is discussed as an affordable, reliable, and practical way of getting outer borough residents from point A to point B.

As a transportation planner/engineer, would you implement a bus service or a light rail service in a Completely Motorized Network Urban Structure? Provide 3 reasons for your choice. Solution As a transportation planner I want to improve bus service(BRT) modern communication systems, smartcard ticketing, GPS, intelligent transport technologies and computer optimisation techniques it has become possible to serve urban transport needs with modern bus rapid transit (or high capacity bus systems) very adequately. These bus systems have the following advantages: i) Bus rapid transit (BRT) systems can serve the needs of medium sized cities all the way up to mega cities. ii) BRT systems can easily reach capacities of 20,000 passengers per direction per hour. These capacities are very adequate for cities which have multiple business districts and medium rise buildings. In such cities higher capacity systems will never run at peak capacity. iii) BRT can be implemented at a fraction of the costs involved in building metro rail transit and light rail systems. BRT systems use existing right-of-way on urban corridors and so the modifications involved do not disrupt the city significantly. iv) A major advantage of BRT is its flexibility in meeting changes in the city development and in changes in demand in quality and quantity. V)Rail systems can only serve a very limited area of a city. Not one developing country city subway system serves more than 10% of population. BRT systems can achieve very high coverage at low investment costs. .

Bangalore is currently in the process of implementing a wide-ranging set of reforms to its urban bus service, one of the largest in India and Asia. At the center of this effort, is a pioneering re-design of the route and network structure of bus services in the city. Together with other aspects such as integrated fares, improved physical infrastructure and unified branding, these reforms promise a step-change improvement in the quality of bus services for Bangalore's 10 million residents. This webinar will provide details of the reforms being undertaken in Bangalore, discuss impacts from the initial phases of its implementation, and address whether this model can be replicated in other Indian and Asian megacities.

Resumen: In recent decades, the main focus in public transport operations has been increasing its speed. Increasing speed not only allows for faster trips, but also a higher frequency with the same fleet, thus reducing waiting times and crowdedness inside the vehicles. This interest in speed has ignored a second key dimension in level of service: reliability. In this article, we provide a full range of impacts of an unreliable public transport service. We demonstrate how regularising headway could improve level of service beyond the gains of simply increasing the operational speed. Regular headways positively affect comfort, reliability, travel and wait time, operational costs, and even some urban impacts of bus services. Thus, the focus for public transport agencies and operators should be redirected to reliability. This is fundamental for making public transport an attractive travel alternative and therefore must become a core goal for urban sustainability.

Presented by Gabriel Oliveira, Gabriel Oliveira, ITDP Brazil Public Transport Coordinator, on September 20th, 11:30 Brasilia Time Zone. Complete title: BRT in Brazil: state of the practice as from the BRT Standard & challenges for operations and integration Summary: Between 2004 and 2014, the total extension of BRT systems almost quadrupled worldwide, rising from about 700 km to 2,600 km (ITDP, 2014). In an effort to monitor and guarantee an standard quality of service across systems, the Institute of Transport and Development Policy (ITDP) has consolidated, along with BRT planning experts and practitioners, a project and operations evaluation tool: the BRT Standard. The tool is divided in seven categories and 42 quantitative metrics that allow further comprehension of BRT state of the practice. It has been used to evaluate more than a hundred corridors in over 60 cities around the world. In Brazil, where the concept has first been developed between the 70’s and 90’s, a second wave of BRT expansion in the last decade summed up more than 250 km built in nine cities and metropolitan regions, an increase of about 150%. In this presentation we aim to assess the state of the practice in sixteen operational Brazilian BRT corridors, drawing out the common challenges faced in their implementation and operations, the best practices identified and the main improvement points. The assessment is based in an exploratory and explanatory analysis of their BRT Standard scoring, where we highlight the case that stand out in each particular category or metric of the tool. Scoring reveals good performance in basic BRT infrastructure elements (such as segregated bus lanes that are typically median aligned, off-board fare collection, level boarding and bus priority at intersections) and in service planning. Performance in categories such as station design, infrastructure sustainability and branding/information communications present greater variance depending on the corridor context. However, the main challenges appear on the access and integration category, where system design and connection with the surrounding urban environment and active modes present flaws, and on operational issues, such as overcrowding and inadequate maintenance. This webinar will present the opportunity for participants to debate on these operational and integration challenges and how can they be overcome. In a broader manner, this study also aspires to influence for more evidence-based policy and decision-making on urban transit investments, not only in the Brazilian context, but also in other contexts where BRT is steadily growing.
