DESCRIPTION
Kathmandu, one of the rapid growing city of South Asia is facing extreme traffic problems due to unprecedented growth in private vehicle ownership. The present road expansion might not prove a effective solution in long run and the ultimate solution will be improvement in Public transportation. Thus knowledge about Mass Transit is must.

BACKGROUND
Increase in Population and Standard of Living & Haphazard urbanization leads to increase private vehicle ownership.
Around 6 lakhs vehicle registered between 2001-2011 withalmost 50% in Kathmandu
93% of vehicles registered are private, largely motorbikes (73%)Public transport vehicles constitute only 3% of total vehicles fleet
Mode share of total trip of Kathmandu

Our present strategy - Dog chasing its own tail
Road space will never catch up with vehicle population.
Thus, the long term solution is
Public Transportation

Mass Transit Facilities
Mass Large number of; Transit : Movement
In simple words called Public Transportation
Shared passenger transportation service which is available for use by general public.
Include buses, trolleybuses, trams and trains, airlines, coaches, rail, metro.

Introduction to BRT
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 12
What is BRT
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 13
BRT is a high-quality bus based transit system that delivers fast, comfortable, and cost-effective urban mobility through the provision of segregated right-of-way infrastructure, rapid and frequent operations with less delay at station.
Exclusive lane for BRT
Features of BRT System:
Segregated bus ways i.e. exclusive lanes
Less Frequent Stops
Comfortable and secure Station
Adequate capacity
Bus Signal Priority
Head way (Time) based schedules
Integration with other mode.
Low-emission vehicle technologies
Pre-board fare collection and fare verification
Access for emergency vehicles

Design Parameter
Average Speed
Minimum speed of 25kmph.
Speed inversely proportion to capacity.
CapacityDesign Capacity = Present capacity plus 10% shift from
other modes
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 23
Saturation Level:The saturation level of a station refers to the percentage of time that a vehicle stopping bay is occupied
At most 0.4
Low saturation level indicates no vehicles queue at a stopping bay
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 24
Some Terms related to BRT system
Stopping Bay
A stopping bay is the designated area in a BRT station where a bus will stop and align itself to the boarding platform
If the saturation level exceeds 0.4, more than one stopping bay is required
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 25
Service frequency (veh/hr)
Number of buses per hour
Lower the headway, higher the frequency
Depend on speed and time of day
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 26
Load Factor (LF)
o Percentage of a vehicles total capacity that is actually occupied.
oDetermined by the frequency of the vehicles and the demand
o Mostly adopted load factor is 0.8 considering both economic benefit and comfort level of passenger.
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 27
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 28
Amount of time that any given vehicle occupy at a given stopping bay.
Dwell time depend on Passenger flow volumes, No & width of vehicle doorways, Entry characteristics (stepped or at-level entry),etc
Dwell Time (Sec)
Vehicle size option
18.5m Articulated vehicle Vehicle size & Capacity
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 29
Corridor Capacity (pphpd)
Total no. of passenger served by BRT system per hour per direction along the route.
Based on BRT Planning Guide, June 2007
Corridor Capacity (pphpd) = Vehicle Capacity (passenger/ vehicle) * Service Frequency (vehicle/ hour) * Load Factor (LF) * Number of Stopping Bays
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 30
Examples:
For ring road as corridor capacity was known, we determine the Service frequency for peak & off-peak hour using:
Using Articulated Vehicle of capacity = 160 (length 18.5m)
No. of Stopping Bays = 1
Load Factor = 0.8
Service frequency = ?
For peak clockwise direction: 4240
Thus, Service frequency = 34 veh/hr
For peak clockwise direction: 2996
Thus, Service frequency = 24veh/hr

16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 35
Why BRT over other MRT modes???
Low capital investment i.e. 4 to 20 times less than a tram or light rail transit (LRT) system and 10 to 100 times less than a metro system
Suitable for short distance between station too i.e. for both trunk feeder service as well as direct service too with reasonable speed.
Can be operated by electricity too thus reducing large amount of fuel consumption.

Basic Information of LRT
16 March, 2015 IOE, Pulchowk Campus 37
Modes Classification based on RIGHT-OF-WAY
Three Category
Category A - Fully controlled or exclusive or private or separated Right of Way. E.g. Rail rapid transit
Category B - Partially controlled i.e. semi-exclusive Right of way. e.g. LRT, BRT
Category C - Surface streets with mixed traffic, also referred to as shared right of way. Modes of this category called surface transit modes.

Introduction:
Bogota (capital of Columbia), with 7.3 million population(about 16% of countrys total population).
95% of road network was used by 8,50,000 private vehicleswhich only transported 19% of Bogotas population.
52,764 accidents & 1174 fatalities were recorded, in theyear
Various measures have been taken for improvement asrestriction in use of automobiles according to plate numbersduring the peak hours).
