<strong>The</strong> <strong>CHRONOBUS</strong> <strong>concept</strong><br />
To achieve the desired level of performance, the proposed developments on the<br />
Chronobus lines are made on areas where there is a risk of irregularities or faults:<br />
Positioning and accessibility of stops (stations and terminals),<br />
Bus lanes development (32 km / 68 km of 7 first Chronobus lines)<br />
Road enlargements allowing a smooth flow of the Chronobus. Occasionally, this may<br />
cause:<br />
- Transformation of angle parking into parallel parking<br />
- Removal of parking spaces.<br />
Prioritizing Chronobus at intersections (moved onto radio system)<br />
Establishment of temporary "locks" for traffic calming,<br />
Development of squares and roundabouts,<br />
<strong>The</strong>se developments systematically include the issue of soft modes (bicycles and<br />
pedestrians) and accompany behaviour changes toward a limited use of private cars in<br />
contributing to a lessening of flows and speeds on the retreated roads.<br />
