Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Bus rapid transit is one of the best ways to improve urban transit. However, how to integrate the traditional bus and BRT is a problem that limits the efficiency of BRT system. Elastic route BRT system is a new BRT mode, which allows the BRT buses turn into or turn out of the bus lane at intersections. This paper puts forward a BRT approach capacity calculation method at intersection in Elastic route BRT system based on the data of Guangzhou BRT. And a case of Guangzhou BRT is studied to verify the validity developed method.
