Abstract Exempting buses from other traffic seems to be an obviously good idea. On the other hand, it is not always possible to dedicate necessary space in the city for an extra lane. Therefore, our goal was to optimize the existing roads for giving priority to buses. Again, it would be nice to dedicate the rightmost lane to buses, but the other drivers would feel strong discomfort when turning right or parking. Moreover, this approach requires two lanes, one lane in each direction. So we tried to examine whether it makes sense to take the lane in the median area of the road, make it reversible and give it to buses. In our work we simulated such a reversible bus lane. We simulate buses that have to change to the leftmost lane and then change back to the rightmost lane for a bus stop. This way we have found out the minimum distance between bus stops such that buses would be able to use it.
