Abstract
Rapid bus applies rapid transit thinking to bus operation. Designed to revitalize bus services, rapid bus is targeted at corridors where conventional bus service has reached saturation, while investment in high capacity rail transit cannot be justified for financial reasons. Rapid bus uses new technology and rail based marketing to grow ridership in medium density markets.
