General Guidelines and Design Regulations
(2/2)
In urban public transport, the bus is the most versatile, most flexible and least expensive in terms of implementation and infrastructure. Rising urban demand requires the development of buses’ efficiency through increased speed and higher passenger capacity during rush hours. Hence, the concept of BHLS, which ensures the bus’s independence by placing it in a reserved lane separated from traffic congestion, allowing for remarkable efficiency.
The purpose of the following guidelines is to introduce current concepts and ideas on the BHLS, and provide planners and designers with practical information and implementation provisions. These guidelines are therefore addressed primarily to decision-makers and specialists, with the objective of implementing dedicated lanes and general measures securing priorities for public transport facilities.
The purpose of this document is to provide advice to planners, transit agencies, local governments, promotors and people interested in the development of new collective urban transport systems, such as BRT (or BHLS), and consider procedures for adapting this system to major cities.
