PUBLIC TRANSPORT & TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS

Public transport and transportation system planning not only focus on the traditional commuter rail system and the Gautrain high-speed rail system, but also minibus taxis and subsidised / unsubsidised commuter buses, including bus rapid transport (BRT) systems. An important feature of public transport is that set fares are charged and vehicles run on fixed routes.

The main generic elements when conducting a public transport study include things like the following:

KOLEKO | Transportation Planning | Traffic Engineering Consultants pr-1.1 Public Transport & Transportation Systems
Both the operations of the public transport system, as well as the physical infrastructure and facilities are considered.
KOLEKO | Transportation Planning | Traffic Engineering Consultants pr-2.2 Public Transport & Transportation Systems
Modal integration and logistical considerations are an integral part of public transport studies.
KOLEKO | Transportation Planning | Traffic Engineering Consultants pr-3.3 Public Transport & Transportation Systems
The use of transportation systems, which seek to minimise traffic congestion by empowering the user with real-time information about traffic conditions, is also considered. Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) solutions, Advanced Public Transport Management Systems (APTMSs) and Smart Parking Solutions are examples of the systems that may be used in public transport.
