1. Floor inside the bus should be uniform inside the vehicle without any steps inside vehicle

2. Floor Height of the Vehiclea) 400, 650 and 900 mm if meets criteria above

1.

Drive & Non driver side door for median & side station @ 400/650/900 mm ht to match BRTS platform heightPartition between doors for both Driver and Non driver side Tractor GateExtra optional front Non Driver side gate with steps

3. Station Locationa) Median Station with platform height to match bus

floor height for BRTS operationb) Side Station with platform height to match bus floor

height for BRTS operation4. System may have all Median stations or all Side

Stations or combinations of Median and Side station with platform height 400 /650 / 900 mm to meet the floor height of the vehicle.

5. Vehicle door locations and floor height selection will be based on the design of BRTS element design – station location, platform height and the local conditions.

Door with steps for end terminals & open operationCan also act as emergency door

Single Wide door in center for faster dispersal- for operating only in the BRT corridorStep-less align with bus stop platform easy access for wheel chair user

Uniform floor height across the length Step less movement inside the bus Easy & fast dispersal of passenger across the length of the bus- lesser dwell time

Seats facing each other with common area for circulation More space for movement while boarding/alighting Plastic molded seats- easy washable with less maintenance

Exclusive area for Wheel Chair User near the door

Precise longitudinal and lateral placement of the bus door with the station doors is needed for faster, safer and convenient boarding & alighting of the passengers
