Abstract:

Transitways are defined as exclusive, physically separated, access controlled high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) priority treatment facilities which are typically located within existing freeway right(s)-of-way. Transitways are sometimes referred to as busways, HOV lanes or AVLs (authorized vehicle lanes). This report was prepared for the Texas State f) department of Highways and Public Transportation (SDHPT) to provide guidelines and standards for the planning and design of transitway facilities to allow subsequent conversion to rail transit guideways. It follows the general style and format of the SDHPT Manual for Planning, Designing and Operating Transitway Facilities in Texas. The Transitway Manual was prepared as an independent document to replace and consolidate existing SDHPT information on the design of high-occupancy vehicle facilities.
