Running Way options
 Dedicated bus road
 Exclusive road for use of buses
 Operate at up to 100 kph (Adelaide, Brisbane)
 Median dedicated lanes – centre of the road
 Usually have physical segregation
 Passing lane required for high efficiency
 If stations in the centre, probably need dedicated fleet
 If lateral stations, can offset to reduce road-take requirements
 Lateral dedicated lanes – located at edge of the road
 May have problem to gain sufficient pavement width
 More difficult if many existing roadside uses

CAPACITY AND COST
FEATURES
EXAMPLES
What is BHLS?
 BHLS?
 Derives from French term ‘BHNS’, maybe later another name
 Generic term for a wide range of quality bus systems
 Is it BRT?
 Not exactly, a different product in the spectrum of bus priority
 Focus more on reliability/quality than on speed/capacity
 Holistic approach
 Improved operating environment – reliability, better speed
 Higher quality vehicles with better comfort and image
 Improved passenger facilities – stops, terminals, ...
 Branding, marketing, ‘repositioning the product’
Case Study 1 : Nantes, France

additional LRT

 Many BHLS systems match street-tramway
street tramway capacity
 Ridership on many rail systems turns out to be far
short of initial planning forecasts, design capacity

How often were bus-based systems ruled out incorrectly?
BRT can operate at short intervals
 Some p
planners p
presume a single
g route,, and then
assume that a low headway cannot be managed
 Most BRT systems operate multiple routes:



Overlapping routes
routes, might not all stop at every station
Individual route headways may be in range 3-20 minutes
Multiple loading bays at the stations to maximise throughput
 Route/Vehicle

Guangzhou BRT has 28 routes on the main trunk, possible 41
In Seoul, the BRT carries 250 buses per hour, per direction
 However, this is a critical point of the BRT design



Throughput of vehicles at stations
Throughput of passengers at stations
Throughput of buses at junctions
BRT is more than tram on tyres
 BRT is a different mode,, different characteristics
 BRT can indeed be designed in the same style as tram …
 …but then it does not exploit the characteristics of bus
 BRT is a ‘service plan’ availing of the infrastructure
 Route system rather than end-to-end services
 Routes can join/leave the running way
way, reducing the need for
passenger transfer (and less need for big interchange stations)
 Options for express, limited stop, and premium services
 Non-BRT buses/routes may also use it non-stop as a ‘channel’
 Business and operator factors are important
 Can be developed incrementally
Car-users will use high-quality

Significant % of new riders in North American and

Major ridership gains in European BHLS (range 20140%)
Some mode shift from car in European BHLS
When of high quality, BRT has high customer
perception matching LRT (e.g.

In Pittsburgh, $800 million investment along the busway
In Seoul, significant value increase in property value on BRT
In Curitiba,, the BRT lines have shaped

 Some BRT/BHLS focus on improving urban-scape
Summary
 BRT and BHLS are established and proven transit modes
 In almost all cases, bus can provide the required




Bus transit can achieve significant ridership growth
Bus-based transit can attract car users and achieve modal shift
BRT can stimulate property development and raise land values
 BRT experience suggests that it is the attributes of transit
that achieve the results rather than the technology used
 A fundamental rethink of the role of bus within the
“transportation hierarchy” is required
