There are 2 big prerequisites for fast bus service :
1. Dedicated bus lanes (speed, predictability).
2. Traffic light priority ( speed, predictability).
How many US cities implement even one of those?
- adgjlsfhk1 8mo agoNot nearly enough
- angmarsbane 8mo agoDedicated bus lanes that are physically separated from car traffic specifically, like the BRT system in Mexico City.
- connorboyle 8mo agoRegardless of exclusive RoW or signal priority, it is physically impossible for a bus route to: 1) stop every few hundred feet to pick up and drop off passengers 2) maintain an effective speed significantly faster than running
