OVERSEAS ROAD NOTE 12

The purpose of these design guidelines is to assemble current ideas on busway transit and to offer transport planners and designers a source of practical information on their use and implementation. Thus this Note is primarily directed at practitioners rather than policy makers. The focus of the content is on busway transit rather than general bus priority measures. The note complements a TRL report on busway transit performance (Gardner et al, 1991) and contains examples of current practice, derived from published information and from observation of operational schemes around the world.
