Book excerpt: Cities around the world face enormous problems of transport sustainability. Rapidly increasing populations and vehicle usage have created gridlock and sprawl, even in very poor cities, as well as unacceptably high levels of air pollution, noise, and accident rates. But improvements can be made. This book explores how the provision of better bus services can bring concrete solutions. "Bus rapid transit" systems emerging in Latin America provide fast, reliable and efficient urban travel for large numbers of people. Express busways, employing high-capacity buses and new technologies such as GPS-based bus tracking systems, can conveniently and reliably move up to 10 times as many people along a route as can cars - and be profitable. This book shows how bus rapid transit differs from traditional bus systems and how it can be developed around the world. There is a detailed look at clean fuels and advanced technologies such as "clean diesel", CNG, hybrid-electric and fuel cells. Case studies are made of six cities and of the steps each might take to encourage more sustainable transport systems

This book was released on 2018-10-05 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bus Rapid Transit or BRT, can be a rather generic term applied to a variety of bus-based transportation systems. In some instances the 'Bus Rapid Transit' term is applied to bus services that have been improved or intensified through the introduction of enhanced infrastructure, such as bus lanes or corridors, the use of higher capacity vehicles operating a more intense service, or it may be applied, probably more correctly, to a bus-based system that bridges the quality and capacity gap between a normal urban bus service and a Light Rail Transit (LRT) system. Bus Rapid Transit for the 21st Century examines the development of BRT, particularly in Britain and Ireland and also further afield, and at the elements that should be incorporated in a BRT scheme fit for the 21st century. This third edition of the book features additional chapters and updates and a wealth of colour photographs.
