Demand of Bus Rapid Transit
Variable Definition
Measure level of demand of the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system. The BRT is a bus-based public transport system designed to improve upon the capacity and reliability of a conventional bus system. A BRT system includes roadways specially designated as corridors for buses and stations for boarding. BRT aims to combine the capacity and speed of a metro and the flexibility and lower cost of a bus system. Interpretation: It is calculated as the ratio between number of users of BRT and total population (applicable only to L1). A unit with higher BRT demand values indicates a system with higher level of demand. Year of data: September 2017.
