The BRT Standard Version 1.0 46 Poorly-maintained Buses and Stations -3 points MAXIMUM Even a BRT system that is well built and attractive can fall into disrepair. It is important that buses and stations be regularly cleaned and maintained. maintenance of buses and stations points Stations and station approaches -3 with platform or roof damage, graffiti, litter, occupancy by vagrants or vendors Poor maintenance of buses with -2 litter on floor, graffiti, and damaged seats Buses and stations are somewhat dirty -1 and unmaintained Distances Between Stations Too Long or Too Short -2 points In a consistently built-up area, the distance between station stops optimizes at around 450 m (1,476 ft.) between stations. Beyond this, more time is imposed on customers walking to stations than is saved by higher bus speeds. Below this distance, bus speeds will be reduced by more than the time saved with shorter walking distances. Thus, in keeping reasonably consistent with optimal station spacing, average distances between stations should not exceed 0.8 km (0.5 mi.), and should not be below 0.3 km (0.2 mi.). distance between stations points Stations are spaced, on average, -2 more than 0.8 km (0.5 mi.) or less than 0.3 km (0.2 mi.) apart
