Fengdongxincheng Bus Rapid Transit Demonstration Corridor Planning Research

With China’s economic development vigorously, the domestic cities road trafficcongestion is becoming increasingly serious. Not only restrict the economic development andcause environmental pollution, but also bring a lot of problems to people’s life and work.Vigorously develop the public traffic became the main way to improve the city traffic.Because of the poorly conventional public traffic capacity, on time, comfort feeling, railtraffic needs great economic investment and long construction period, bus rapid transitcombined with conventional bus and rail traffic advantages, appearing in the view of thepeople.This paper firstly summarized the bus rapid transit system theory research situation anddevelopment status. On the basis of previous studies, analyzes the bus rapid transit systemcomponents and characteristics, and analyzes the bus rapid transit system in the differentmode of development and function orientation. Then give the selection of the bus rapid transitcorridor steps and methods, and use the “Benefit Cost Ratio” to decision corridor, on the basisof the theory, determine the first BRT demonstration corridor of the Fengdong New City inXi’an. Then studies the lane setting and site planning in Fengdong New City, and detailstudies the optimal stopping spacing model to the passenger travel time for the shortest target.At last, analyzes the organization and operation form of the hallway bus rapid transit line, andthe conventional public traffic adjusting method after opening the BRT.
