<strong>BRT</strong> flow ( bus/h/direction)<br />

The green line is the suggested proposal, and the red ellipse is the estimated volumes<br />

(conversion of 1500 vehicles if divided on two points should be around 500 to 1000 on<br />

each one, and the <strong>BRT</strong> flow as a maximum of 30/hour/direction (2700 passengers/hour).<br />

The traffic signal (blue line) that introduces delays to the <strong>BRT</strong> buses and general traffic<br />

would be recommended at much higher volumes.<br />

Grogol intersection – (not evaluated)<br />

a. Kalideres- Grogol<br />

Not evaluated due to insufficient time to observe the stretch on all periods. It seems that<br />

the project is like corridor 2, giving <strong>for</strong> general traffic more space than they really need,<br />

especially on the Kalideres – Pesing fly over (under construction) west stretch. This<br />

seems more of a rural highway than an urban road, and the volume/capacity ratio seems<br />

very low.<br />

b. Rawa Buaya intersection<br />

The location is reserved <strong>for</strong> future highway crossing and space between the two crossings<br />

opposite the traffic is around 120 meter.<br />

Today the critical point is the right turns which is allowed on the corridor resulting from<br />

practically two signals with three phases each one.<br />
