53 BRT: great challenges

54 Challenge: Transport + Urban Planning Curitiba gave us the example: planning BRTs + Land Use together for SUSTAINABILITY. Foto: URBS

55 Challenge: priority for public transport SIBRT and EMBARQ advocate for priority for public transport! Private Car owners want more space!

56 Challenge: Operational Control SIBRT s Benchmarking help cities by exchanging experiences and building technical capacity to solve problems. EMBARQ advocates for high quality public transport. Foto: Daniela Facchini/ EMBARQ Brasil

57 Challenge: Road Safety Priority topic on SIBRT benchmarking studies! EMBARQ published the BRT Safety Guidelines BRT Safety Guidelines (pilot):

58 Challenge: BRT BT BRT BT BRT needs the R of RAPID to be competitive, attract users and reduce congestion + other negative impacts of car use!

59 Challenge: Integration and Coverage BRT is the base of the public transport, but remember everybody in the City and Metropolitan Region needs door-to-door solution! High Quality Public Transport for All Foto: Luis Antonio Lindau/ EMBARQ Brasil

60 Challenge: Integration and Coverage In Latin America cities started with BRT corridors, then built BRT networks, and are now evolving to Integrated Transport Systems Foto: Luis Antonio Lindau/ EMBARQ Brasil

61 BRTs in Latin America: Constant innovation since initial busways in 1970s Diverse and strong applications in multiple conditions High performance, low cost, rapid implementation Are growing into large scale integrated systems Adapting new technologies (vehicles and ITS) Still great challanges ahead: land use integration, business as usual investment in car infrastructure, quality of service
