Guangzhou BRT Conceptual Plan

Following international best practice, the Construction Commission has indicated that BRT in Guangzhou should be implemented such that:

• Passengers will benefit from major travel time savings
• Land acquisition would preferably not be required
• Mixed traffic congestion will not be worsened
• The system will supplement and complement the Metro
• The system will be sufficiently profitable that the bus operators will be able to pay for the new buses.

The Guangzhou BRT Conceptual Plan prepared in 2005 - 2006 explains:

• The suitability and risks of BRT in Guangzhou
• A BRT corridor, and station locations and sizes
• A BRT operational model suitable for Guangzhou
• Intermodal integration
• Institutional arrangements and next steps.
