Abstract:

The Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Bus Rapid Transit Demonstration Program is supporting demonstrations of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) in selected cities across the United States. The US BRT Demonstration Program aims to adapt the principles of highly successful BRT systems, such as those of Curitiba, Brazil; Lyons, France; and Nagoua, Japan, to U.S. conditions, laws, and institutions. A primary goal of the BRT Demonstration Program is to assess the demonstration projects through scientific evaluation. This document presents guidelines for planning, implementation, and reporting the findings of an evaluation of a BRT implementation site selected for the FTA BRT Demonstration Program. The document will provide a common framework and methodology for developing and then executing the evaluation of individual BRT demonstrations. BRT is consistent with FTA Strategic Plan goals of improving mobility and accessibility and providing efficient transportation. FTA intends for the BRT Demonstration Program to address a number of transit issues and to improve bus service, operations, and ridership. Low-cost investments in infrastructure, equipment, operational improvements, advanced bus technologies and intelligent transportation systems can provide the foundation for BRT systems that substantially upgrade bus system performance.
