Bus Service
• Capacity = 12 - 240 passengers.
• Flexible - Expansions and extensions
  can be introduced easily
• Transit systems using buses are
  capable of carrying 2,400 to 15,000
  passengers per hr per direction.
• Volume of up to 30,000 passengers
  per hr per direction can be achieved
  with special bus lane, off-line
  stations and multiple boarding
  platform.
Bus travel pattern
• Radial service - sub-urban to CBD (Shuttle buses)
• Ring road service to link up various sub-centres (Stage
  buses)
• Local travel service (Mini bus)
• Special travel in the CBD (eg. tourism)
• Travel service between activity centres (Shuttle of mini
  bus).
Example of Bus Service Guidelines

Service pattern
•Service major activity centres such as office buildings,
school and hospital.
•Provide 300 meters coverage where population density >
30. Serve at least 90% of the residents.
•Space routes at about 0.75 km in urban area and 1.5 in
sub-urban area.

Bus Operation Design
Frequency, f = n / N

•n = Demand for service
(passengers / hr)
•N = Maximum number of
passengers per bus

•Usually minimum headway is set in
multiples of 7.5 or 10 minutes for
the shake of coordination (or
service frequency of 8, 6, 4 …. per
hr)
Example
A bus service is planned between Bangi and Putrjaya, a
distance of 20 km. The operating time is 45 minutes.
Estimated demand is 500 passengers/hr. 45-seater buses
will be used, which can accommodate 20 standees. Design
basic system and determine the fleet size. Maximum
headway is 30 minutes and the minimum terminal time is 5
minutes.
Solution:
• Operating speed v = 60L/t
  = 60 x 20 / 45 = 26.67km/hr
• headway, h = 60(45 + 20)/500 = 7.8 min (adopt 7.5 min.)
• Cycle time, T = 2 (45 + 5) = 100
• Fleet size, N = T / h = 100 / 7.5 = 14 vehicles
• Revised cycle time, T'= N x h = 14 x 7.5 = 105 min
• Revised terminal time = (T' - 2 travel time)/2
  = (105 - 2 x 45)/2 = 7.5 minutes
• Commercial speed = 20 / (105 / 60 / 2)
• = 22.86 km/hr
