Description
Description

Articulated buses are extended buses linking together two or more sections with pivoting joints to meet higher passenger capacities while still allowing the bus to maneuver appropriately. Designed for maximum efficiency and typically incorporated into mass rapid bus transit systems, articulated buses are designed with single-deck or double-decker bodies for even higher capacity needs.

Dimensions & Sizes
Dimensions & Sizes

Articulated Buses have average lengths of 59’ (18 m), widths of 8’4” (2.55 m), heights of 10’4” (3.13 m), and have a capacity of 48 (+1) seats with standing room for 98.

What initiatives are in place to improve the energy efficiency of bus fleets?
Initiatives to boost bus fleet energy efficiency include adopting hybrid and electric buses, retrofitting older models with more efficient engines, implementing idle-reduction policies, and using alternative fuels. GPS and route optimization software also reduce unnecessary mileage, contributing to lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions.
How do long-distance coach buses differ from local transit buses in terms of features and design?
Long-distance coach buses are designed with comfort in mind for extended travel, featuring reclining seats, onboard restrooms, air conditioning, luggage compartments, and entertainment systems. Local transit buses prioritize capacity and frequent stops with more standing room, accessibility features, and multiple doors for efficient passenger flow.
How are bus companies addressing accessibility issues for people with disabilities?
Bus companies are enhancing accessibility by equipping fleets with features like low-entry designs, wheelchair ramps, and dedicated space for wheelchairs. They also employ audible and visual stop announcements and provide training for drivers to assist passengers with disabilities, ensuring compliance with regulations and promoting inclusive transportation.

What are the most effective ways to increase public transport ridership?
To boost public transport ridership, cities can improve service frequency, ensure reliability, extend operational hours, and enhance connectivity between different modes. Affordable pricing structures, clean and safe vehicles, and stations, along with real-time passenger information systems, also play critical roles in attracting more users to public transport systems.
How do public transport systems adapt to peak and off-peak demand fluctuations?
Public transport systems adapt to peak and off-peak demand fluctuations by adjusting service frequency, utilizing dynamic scheduling, and deploying larger vehicles during high-demand periods. They may also offer off-peak discounts to encourage ridership during less busy times and employ real-time monitoring to respond quickly to changing ridership patterns.
What role does public transport play in social equity and accessibility?
Public transport is pivotal for social equity and accessibility, providing affordable mobility to all socio-economic groups, including those without access to private vehicles. It enables equal opportunities for employment, education, and healthcare access across communities, thereby reducing social disparities and fostering inclusive growth.
