1 Understanding Our Options, Lessons and Potential of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Graham Carey P.E., AICP November 2, 2011
2 Average Speed (mph) What is BRT? 50 Commuter Rail Heavy Rail Interurban (DMU) Light Rail Conventional Bus Transit System Peak Capacity (Riders per Hour)
3 Average Speed (mph) What is BRT? 50 Commuter Rail Heavy Rail Interurban (DMU) Light Rail Conventional Bus Transit System Peak Capacity (Riders per Hour)
4 What is BRT? Like Rail rather than Light Rail
5 Typical BRT Elements Exclusive Transitways/ Runningways Transit Signal Priority Wider Station Spacing Level Boarding Fare Collection Off-vehicle Improved Stations Real-Time Passenger Information Unique Vehicle Design Identity/Branding High Frequency Service Simple and Direct Routing (travel time reduction)
6 Legacy Project e, Harbor) Los Angeles (El Monte, Harbor) Houston HOV System Ottawa Transitways Pittsburgh Busways HOV System 6
7 International Pioneers Brisbane Curitiba Bogotá
8 US BRT Pioneers LA Metro Rapid Las Vegas Max Eugene EmX Boston Silver Line LA Orange Line Cleveland HealthLine
9 Typical BRT Elements Exclusive Transitways/ Runningways Transit Signal Priority Wider Station Spacing Level Boarding Fare Collection Off-vehicle Improved Stations Real-Time Passenger Information Unique Vehicle Design Identity/Branding High Frequency Service Simple and Direct Routing (travel time reduction)
10 Transitways/Runningways Key Attribute: Flexibility
11 Transitways/Runningways Degree of exclusivity Placement Means of separation Surface treatment
12 Degree of Exclusivity None (Mixed traffic) Semi-exclusive Exclusive
13 Mixed Traffic
14 Queue Jumps
15 Semi-exclusive shared with certain maneuvers (BAT) shoulder lanes time of the day (Peak Period) shared with other vehicles (Managed Lane) direction (Tidal Flow) dynamic (BLIMP)
16 Shoulder Lane
17 Peak Period Only Kansas City (peak only)
18 Curb Side Lane
19 Curb Side With Parking
20
21 Curbside shared with left turn turns
22 Managed Lanes
23 Exclusive Lane - Separate Brisbane Orange Line
24 Exclusive Lane- Separate
25 Exclusive Lane - Median

42 Branding viva brand elements: Fin v Color
43 Communications
44 What s Next? Dynamic lane assignment (BLIMP) Vehicle Assist and Automation (VAA)
45 Bus Lane with InterMittent Priority (BLIMP) Open to general traffic Exclusive bus lane as needed Create space in front of the bus
46 BLIMP Concept (1) Features BLIMP lane Signal In-Pavement Lights Bus detection BLIMP Start = Lane open to general purpose traffic = Lane open to bus only Overhead Lane-use control signals BLIMP End
47 Lane Control Equipment Overhead Lane-Use Control Signals In-Pavement Lights
48 BLIMP Concept (2) All lanes open BLIMP Start BLIMP End
49 BLIMP Concept (3) Bus approaches BLIMP lane BLIMP Start BLIMP End Approaching bus detected Lane-use control signals change In-pavement lights flash
50 BLIMP Concept (4) BLIMP Start BLIMP End
51 Challenges Creating and maintaining space Forcing lane change
52 BLIMP Concept (5) Bus enters cleared BLIMP lane BLIMP Start BLIMP End
53 BLIMP Concept (6) Bus travels along BLIMP lane BLIMP Start BLIMP End Lane reopens to general purpose traffic after bus travels through each segment
54 BLIMP Concept (7) Return to all lanes open BLIMP Start BLIMP End
55 BLIMP Simulation
56 Vehicle Assist and Automation Lateral guidance Longitudinal guidance Applications Precision docking Lane keeping Platooning
57 Vehicle Assist and Automation (2) Mechanical (Adelaide) Optical (Las Vegas) GPS (Minneapolis) Magnetic (Eugene)
58 Magnetic Guidance
59 Platooning
60 Conclusions Plenty of creative ideas One size doesn t fit all Do what is necessary Something is better than nothing
