1 Joe Seymour, Technical Advisor (Infrastructure) Rob Kelly, Chief Technical Advisor City of Tshwane IRPTN Project Office Presentation overview A developing country? Planning of the past Why BRT? Typical infrastructure Local issues Useful design tools City of Tshwane (Pretoria) Developing country Transportation trends: o Rapid motorisation; o Increasing accidents and deaths; o Rising emissions; and o Falling public transport ridership. 1

2 Worldwide Car Ownership Levels (WHO) Total Motor Trade Sales South Africa Worldwide Accident Levels (WHO) 2

3 GDP Per Capita A developed country is not a place where the poor have cars. It s where the rich use public transportation. Mayor of Bogata Context to Current Transportation Demands in South Africa: The Apartheid era resulted in an urban settlement pattern that disadvantaged the disadvantaged Large townships long distances from the urban centres, with commutes of two hours or more being the norm 3

4 Context to Current Travel Options Current Transportation Options: 4

5 Current Public Transportation Issues: Why was BRT Selected as the solution: International agencies convinced National Government that BRT was the solution. Speed of Introduction in advance of the World Cup. Allowed existing Public Transport providers to become part of new operating companies in each City. Lack of confidence in the existing Public Transport industry that they could deliver the required capacity. Cape Town BRT Line 1 Cape Town BRT Line 1 So what constitutes a BRT in RSA : Dedicatedpriority infrastructure Frequent and rapid services Levelboarding and alighting Pre-boardfare collection and fare verification Fare-integrationbetween routes, corridors, and services Enhanced stations that are secure and weather-protected CleanEuro 4 vehicles 5

6 Whole Journey Concept: What characterises a BRT scheme in RSA: o Central running; o Segregation maximised over length of schemes; o Priority at junctions; and o Coloured Surfacing to emphasise the Lane. Central Running: 6

7 Central Running: Delenator/ Separator: Delenator/ Separator: 7

8 Delenator/ Separator: Junction Priority: Junction Priority: 8

9 Junction Priority: Junction Priority: Junction Priority: 9

10 Junction Priority: Junction Priority: Junction Priority: 10

11 Junction Priority: Coloured Surfacing: Coloured Surfacing: 11

12 Pavement Strength: Stations: BRT Stations far more than a pole and shelter: o Closed system with ticket booth. o Security of passengers and staff. o Level boarding for all passengers. o Unique design for each City. Cape Town: My Citi 12

13 Johannesburg : Rea Vaya Inside a Station: Inside a Station: 13

14 Universal Access: Universal Access: Universal Access: 14

15 City of Tshwane : City of Tshwane : Ticketing: South African National Department of Transport (NDOT) has mandated: o All AFC (Automated Fare Collection) systems must be EMV (Europay MasterCard Visa) compatible. 15

16 EMV (Europay MasterCard Visa) is a contactless payment system: o Non banked customers can load money on a card o Bank creates a shadow account to store loaded money o Monetary limits apply to financial transactions o Transactions can take place without entering a PIN by pressing card against reader The aim of this is to: o Allow passengers to use the same card for all public transport trips everywhere o Reduce the need for passengers to carry cash (and improve safety) o Reduce cash transactions and therefore, reduce cash collection costs Security: BRT has caused industrial disputes... 16

18 Useful Tools: Micro-simulation modelling has the ability to visually represent predicted traffic behaviour through 3D animation, non-technical people such as politicians and the general public to fully appreciate the impacts of a proposed scheme. Nana Sita (Skinner) Street: 18
