Having a single station serving both directions<br />
of the <strong>BRT</strong> system makes transfers easier <strong>and</strong><br />
more convenient—something that becomes more<br />
important as the <strong>BRT</strong> network exp<strong>and</strong>s. It also<br />
tends to reduce construction costs <strong>and</strong> minimize<br />
the necessary right-of-way. In order to receive<br />
points, stations must have a center plat<strong>for</strong>m that<br />
serves both directions of service. Stations with side<br />
plat<strong>for</strong>ms <strong>and</strong> other stations that do not serve both<br />
directions of service are not eligible.<br />
