Modeling and Implementation of Bus Rapid Transit corridor based on isolated or coordinated Traffic Prioritization and Automatic Location

Ioannis Patias and Vasil Georgiev

Abstract: In many cities facts defining conditions for very high concentration of functions and population make transport difficult. The proposed solutions are Automated Vehicle Location (AVL) and prioritization systems for mass urban transport buses, and priority vehicles, through a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridor. Two solutions presented, which consist of a detection sub-system, with a bus component, using transmitter, and a receiver placed on the traffic lights, in the case of isolated system and an additional control center, in the case of the integrated / coordinated system. The functionality is described, and it is also presented as architecture the solution of an integrated bus priority management GPS system. In both cases we aim in minimizing the waiting time on traffic lights, and thus the waste of time on traveling. Such system is a useful instrument for any mass urban transport system.
