SYSTEM STRENGTHS
Indeed, Janmarg incorporates several sophisticated features of a high-level BRT system, including:
- median busways with strong longitudinal segregation and good pavement structure
- changes in road geometry to accommodate new traffic patterns, including split flyovers, as well as new pedestrian and bicycle facilities
- real bus stations, located in the median, with prepayment and level access to the buses
- renewed vehicle fleets with special design, including wide doors on both sides; and;
- frequent service to improve passenger convenience
