Photo: myciti.org.za The Cape Town CBD system differs from the Table View corridor BRT Planning International, 2018 THE BRT STANDARD The BRT Standard was created by a committee of experts who designed many of the highest performing BRT systems in the world. The purpose was to create a universal definition of Bus Rapid Transit. BRT Planning International, 2018 THE BRT STANDARD After creating the BRT Standard, the Technical Committee performed 2 basic checks: Do systems meeting the criteria look and feel like BRT? Do systems meeting the criteria perform well in the absolute? Nantes, Austin, Tx France “Rapid” BRT Planning International, 2018 WHY WE NEED A UNIVERSAL DEFINITION Gives the public something to latch onto when BRT presented as an alternative BRT Planning International, 2018 WHY WE NEED A UNIVERSAL DEFINITION BRT Planning International, 2018 WHY AN INTERNATIONAL STANDARD? Cities are different but the causes of bus delay are universal. BRT is a technical solution that solves the problem of buses stuck in traffic Los Angeles Manila BRT Planning International, 2018 WHY AN INTERNATIONAL STANDARD? BRT is a technical solution that solves the problem of slow boardings BRT can be scaled to address different magnitudes of the problem but basic BRT elements usually benefit any corridor where traffic is bad and boarding volumes are large. This is true anywhere in the world. Singapo New Jersey re BRT Planning International, 2018 WHAT ABOUT LOCAL DEFINITIONS? • Basic BRT elements beneficial anywhere slow transit is a problem • Good to think locally about what is actually needed • If local def doesn’t meet international def, should we call it BRT? Something else? • Can cities get involved in shaping the universal BRT definition such that it can remain universal? BRT Planning International, 2018 WHAT ABOUT LOCAL DEFINITIONS? Of course, cities have many constituents, including drivers. This can lead to a watering down of BRT systems. The BRT definition was designed purely from the perspective of BRT passengers. Let’s not forget that if we are to create local standards. BRT Planning International, 2018 WHAT ABOUT THE FTA’S DEFINITION? FTA updated its BRT definition in MAP-21 with 2 categories: • Corridor Based • Fixed Guideway Elements in FTA def not too different from BRT Standard but: • Less specificity as to what exactly is required, e.g., o No mention of right of way alignment, o Open-ended language such as “Makes a substantial investment in a single route within a defined corridor” • Different elements emphasized e.g.: o Greater emphasis on TSP, less on turn prohibitions o No mention of off-board ticketing, all-door boarding, at-level boarding BRT Planning International, 2018 WHAT ABOUT THE FTA’S DEFINITION? This is fine for funding purposes as proof of performance is in model results. The more elements of the BRT Standard included, the better the forecast system should perform. BRT Standard is a proxy for performance and has been well tested.

  • APPENDICES Everett-Boston
    Everett-Boston BRT APPENDICES APPENDIX A THE STATE OF TRANSIT IN EVERETT: EXISTING CONDITIONS AND FUTURE NEEDS 2 HISTORY OF TRANSIT IN EVERETT Boston’s transit system was originally designed with a series of surface– rapid transit transfer stations. Horsecars and then streetcars wound through narrow downtown streets, but the roads were quickly overcome by congestion, so the city built the first subway in the nation in 1897. However, this subway—now the Green Line—was relatively low-capacity, with a parade of short trolley cars running through narrow passages. As higher- capacity rapid transit lines were built, passengers would board surface vehicles (mostly trolleys) that fed into higher-capacity rapid transit lines at major transfer stations to continue trips downtown. Even as the network has changed, this general function has remained to this day. In the case of Everett, bus routes only serve the bordering towns of Medford, Malden, Revere, and Chelsea; nearly all other destinations require a transfer. For most trips, the transfer point is at Sullivan station, but buses also provide connections to the Orange Line at Wellington and Malden, as well as the Blue Line at Wood Island and Wonderland. This has not always been the case: Before the Orange Line was extended to Oak Grove in the 1970s, the line terminated in Everett, south of Revere Beach Parkway and the main population of the city. When the extension was opened, the routes serving Everett had their termini moved, with some extended from the old Everett station to Sullivan and others rerouted to Malden and Wellington stations.

NUMBER: Working Paper ITLS-WP-19-02 TITLE: Performance Contributors of Bus Rapid Transit Systems within the ITDP BRT Standard: An Ordered Choice Approach Bus rapid transit (BRT) is a mode of public transportation with ABSTRACT: relatively fast, flexible, comfortable, affordable and environment-friendly services. In this paper, the potential contributors to 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 Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP). The evaluation of an ordered logit model and an ordered probit model shows that the performance of the former is slightly better, which is chosen for the empirical application. The identified significant predictors are peak-hour speed, peak frequency, the average distance between stations, the length of dedicated busway, passing lanes at BRT station, covered station access, enhanced station environment, pre-board and automated fare collection and fare verification, and network integration. Based on a business-as-usual prediction and what-if analysis, this paper offers information for decision makers to plan a high- standard BRT system in line with the ITDP BRT standard.

NUMBER: Working Paper ITLS-WP-18-02 TITLE: Determinants of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system revenue and effectiveness – A global benchmarking exercise Bus rapid transit systems (BRT) have evolved in all shapes and ABSTRACT: sizes around the world in the last 30 years motivated by providing greater efficiency and value for money than potential alternatives. This paper aims to explore and compare the effectiveness (including its determinants) and revenue potential of 58 BRT systems globally. A key research question for this paper is to what extent there is a trade-off between long term capital expenditure and short term operating cost. The results suggest that BRT systems located in developing countries or countries that have high population densities are successful in generating higher revenues per passenger and unit of input than their conventional bus counterparts but are from a community perspective not more cost effective in doing so. Better BRT standards and hence higher capital expenditure, while significantly increasing patronage and input effectiveness do not have a significant impact on either yields or cost effectiveness. In contrast, public ownership and the number of stations are on average associated with higher cost effectiveness scores.

Introduction 2 INTRODUCTION Introduction 3 Introduction The BRT Standard is an evaluation tool for world-class bus rapid transit (BRT) based on international best practices. It is also the centerpiece of a global effort by leaders in bus rapid transit design to establish a common definition of BRT and ensure that BRT systems more uniformly deliver world-class passenger experiences, significant economic benefits, and positive environmental impacts. Despite the increasing prevalence, prominence, and success of BRT, many remain unaware of the characteristics of the best BRT corridors and their ability to provide levels of service more typically associated with metro and subway systems. This lack of awareness frequently results in a preference for rail when BRT is in fact a comparable, more cost-effective, and equally elegant solution. This false impression stems partly from the lack of a common definition for BRT. Without a definition, modest improvements to standard bus service are often inaccurately labeled as BRT. The BRT Standard functions as a means of achieving a common definition, as a scoring system, and as a planning tool.
