recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Case studies on transport policy"

DOI: 10.1016/j.cstp.2017.01.004

Abstract: Abstract While the profile of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) has been raised owing to many success cases, substantial barriers to its planning and implementation persist. This article compared two contrasting efforts to implement BRT systems… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.eap.2020.07.004

Abstract: Abstract The potential contributors to bus rapid transit (BRT) performance are investigated within an ordered choice modelling framework, in which the dependent variable is the BRT standard (Gold, Silver, Bronze or Basic), developed by the… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Transport Geography"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2018.06.005

Abstract: Bus Rapid Transit systems exist in over 206 cities and 45 countries around the world. They are seen to provide a much lower cost option of mass mobility than fixed rail or underground systems which… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Transport Geography"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2018.06.019

Abstract: Abstract Bus rapid transit (BRT) is a popular mode for government investment in public infrastructure, particularly in developing countries where capital resources are scarce. Enthusiastic evaluations of BRT systems worldwide are perhaps premature given that… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Transport Reviews"

DOI: 10.1080/01441647.2020.1818872

Abstract: ABSTRACT Public transport in cities of the Global South is mainly provided by paratransit operators who self-regulate their services in the absence of adequate formal transport supply and due to weak or no formal regulatory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/14680629.2024.2324968

Abstract: Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART), featuring multi-axles, high tire pressure, and complete channelization, leads to severe rutting on conventional asphalt pavements. Semi-flexible pavement materials (SFP) were applied to ART corridors to mitigate rutting. Mechanical response… read more here.
