This study was designed to quantify the importance of image and perception to Bus Rapid Transit, by identifying the different un-derlying tangible and intangible factors that drive any perceived differences between BRT and other forms of rapid transit.
This report briefly summarizes the information related to Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) developments in China collected through independent research and a visit to China from April 17-26, 2006 as part of FTA Public Transportation Trade Mission. The purpose of NBRTI's participation in the mission was to visit operational BRT systems and to meet with organizations engaged in BRT planning or operations in China. By establishing initial contact with such organizations, a channel of communications has been opened to exchange information and allow for future cooperation on common problems or programs.
