The synthesis is of interest to urban planners, transportation managers, and route planners who must establish, budget, and adjust bus transit routes. The synthesis contains specific guidelines to achieve the best route and service policies and plans. Establishing the best bus routes and services for a given urban area entails an examination of past systems, the current system, and potential needs for future service. Once these have been identified, the goals and objectives of that area's bus transit must be stated. Then, when routes and schedules have been implemented, service levels must be carefully monitored for improvement, although changes should be made only with great care and consideration. This report of the Transportation Research Board presents numerous aspects of bus route and service planning, from route structure, coverage, and length to passenger comfort and safety. It should prove useful as a tool for urban bus transit planners in upgrading or expanding bus service and in coordinating bus and rail service.
