Hardback. Etat : New. For cities investing in public transit infrastructure, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) continues to grow as a popular mode of choice. BRT implementation, planning, operation, performance and impacts, from a wide range of developed and developing cities across the globe are examined in depth in this exemplary book, with contributions by academics and practical experts on BRT.Each chapter is self-contained, presenting empirical research and grounded examples of BRT in specific urban spaces. Providing rich insight, the chapters also suggest lessons for cities elsewhere. As a whole, the book frames the chapters with the question of how BRT is valued, providing a timely lens to the broader conceptual question of how transport infrastructure can and ought to be valued in the twenty-first century. Urban and transport studies scholars will find this an invaluable read, as it compares BRT to similar forms of public transport in cities, exploring the pros and cons of the system.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Curitiba, the capital city of the Paraná state in southeastern Brazil, has become a global model for urban development, environment preservation and transit. This book releases Curitiba's odyssey through pioneering and developing Bus Rapid Transit 'pari-passu' with urban and metropolitan planning, bringing valuable experiences to cities worldwide. Similarly, this book contrasts Curitiba's design as a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) with Brasilia's (Brazil's capital city and most iconic Brazilian city) design as a Design Oriented to Traffic (DOT). Beginning with former Mayor and Architect Jaime Lerner's plans in the 1960s, Curitiba grew fast to almost 2 million inhabitants with quality of life as main achievement. The 1965, 1975, 1991, 2000 and 2004 Master Plans, as well as the controversial 1943 Agache's Plan, were revisited to extract lessons and parameters for such development. These plans' lessons greatly influenced the planning directions in some South American cities such as Bogotá, Santiago and Lima, and also important North American cities like Portland, OR; San Francisco and Los Angeles, CA.
