Coordinated Design of Midblock Bus Stops and Crosswalks on Road with Bus Lane

Abstract:

The safety and convenience of pedestrians and the efficiency of buses were considered comprehensively.Based on a detailed analysis of the three key parameters,bus stops position,crosswalks position and distance between stops and crosswalks,a coordinated design model for midblock bus stops and crosswalks on a road with bus lane was built.Then,coordinated design methods of the two were proposed systematically.Finally,the methods were fully applied in a case study.

Key words:bus lane; crosswalk; bus stop; traffic design
