Why BRT in Vizag City ?

THERE ARE ABOUT 4.5 LAKH (BY NOV 2007) REGISTEREDVEHICLES - 90% ARE CARS & TWO WHEELERS

TRAVEL DEMAND OF 12 LAKH PASSENGER TRIPS PER DAY

PRIVATE VEHICLES CONTRIBUTE TO 65% OF TRAVEL NEEDS

(7.8 LAKH TRIPS)

TRAVEL DEMAND PROJECTED TO GROW TO 16 & 28 LAKH

TRIPS PER DAY BY 2011 AND 2021

IN FUTURE ROAD CAPACITY WILL BE A CONSTRAINT

TRANSPORT NETWORK WILL NOT ONLY REQUIRE EXPANSION

BUT WIDENING / STRENGTHENING, AS WELL .. ARREST THIS TREND AND PROMOTE PUBLIC TRANSPORT -

TARGET ABOUT 50% MODAL SPLIT BY 2011 (present share

below 20%)

THEREFORE, PLANNING, DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A
