Includes bibliographical references and index.What city buses do -- Look inside -- Look outside -- Diagram of a city bus -- Plan a bus route."You need to get to another part of a big city quickly. What can you do? Take the city bus! City buses take people where they need to go day after day. They help people get to workplaces, stores, and more. They are hard at work in all types of weather. Young readers will learn about the main parts of city buses, how they work, and why they are important to cities and the people who ride them"--Grades 2-3Ages 6-8480LAccelerated Reader AR

Guide for geometric design of transit facilities on highways and streets. by American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.;

Includes bibliographical references.Chapter 1. Introduction -- ch. 2. Planning and decision-making -- ch. 3. Design parameters and controls -- ch. 4. Bus facilities on limited access highways -- ch. 5. Guidelines for bus facilities on streets and roadways -- ch. 6. Light rail and streetcar facilities on streets and highways -- ch. 7. Pedestrian and bicycle access -- Appendix C. Bus vehicle characteristics -- app. D. Busways -- app. E. Off-line transit facilities.This guide provides a comprehensive reference of current practice in the geometric design of transit facilities on streets and highways, including local buses, express buses, and bus rapid transit operating in mixed traffic, bus lanes, and high-occupancy vehicle lanes, as well as bus-only roads within street and freeway environments. It also covers streetcars and LRT running in mixed traffic and transit lanes, and within medians along arterial roadways. These guidelines are based on a review of relevant AASHTO, TRB, and ITE documents, as well as design reports provided by various transit agencies. They are designed for use by public agencies, practitioners, and developers in need of basic information about planning, locating, sizing, designing, and implementing transit facilities along roadways.

Passenger conveyance components include escalators, elevators, moving walkways, and passenger assist vehicles/carts. Automated People Mover systems (the subject of ACRP Reports 37 and 37A), personal rapid transit systems, and shuttle bus systems are not covered in the Guidebook. In addition to the Guidebook, ACRP Report 67 also includes a comprehensive database along with a Decision-Support Tool for planning, designing, and evaluating passenger conveyance systems at airports as a function of specific airport design and operating parameters. This database allows project planners to examine how passenger conveyance components operate as a system throughout different areas within the airport environment"--Foreword.Research sponsored by the Federal Aviation Administration
