Problems faced Due to BRT :
1)Due to many intersections, leading Traffic Congestion & accidents.
2) Lack of sufficient parking facility at BRTS, bus stops irks passengers.
3) The City scape & landscape of the twin cities are been damaged.
4) Hubli-Dharwad being second tier city, has around 25 Traffic signals congestions,
during peak hours the travel time is nearly 45mins - 60 min for 20kms.
5) Landowners cry foul over notices for encroachments.
6) Due to dedicated 4 Lane for buses & 2 lane for private vehicles without parking of
private vehicles on two lanes, creates a major traffic jams/congestion along

On July 12, 1980, the country's president, Ferdinand E. Marcos, created the Light Rail Transit
Authority (LRTA) as a government agency.
Light rail transit (LRT) is a form of passenger urban rail transit characterized by a combination
of tram and rapid transit features. While its rolling stock is similar to a traditional tram, it
operates at a higher capacity and speed, and often on an exclusive right-of-way.
LRT can run aboveground at street level, like streetcars, however they operate in separate
lanes, meaning they are not affected by car and truck traffic. LRT can also run underground,
like subways, as is planned for much of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT.
Components of LRT :
Design and operational elements of LRT include level boarding, off-board fare payment, and
traffic signal priority. Stations are typically spaced farther apart than those of local transit
services and are usually situated where there are higher population and employment
densities.

Advantages of LRT
Because light rail vehicles run on fixed tracks, they are less affected by traffic congestion and other disruptions. This mea ns that
light rail systems can offer more frequent and consistent service than buses, which can be delayed by traffic and other facto rs.

Rio announces transition from BRT to light rail
The city’s current network, which was inaugurated for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, has three lines with 29 stops, and is served
by a fleet of 32 vehicles each with capacity for 420 passengers
The upgrade project will begin with the conversion of the Transcarioca BRT line, connecting Barra da Tijuca with Galeão International Airport,
and the Transoeste BRT line, which runs from Barra da Tijuca to Santa Cruz, with a branch to Campo Grande. The BRT network already features
dedicated BRT lanes and high-platform stations.
The project is being led by Rio de Janeiro’s Partnership and Investment Company (CCPar), formerly Cdurp, in partnership with the Municipal
Transportation Secretariat (SMTR).
We want to improve the quality of transport for the people of Rio de Janeiro and point the way to the Rio of the future,” says CCPar president,
Mr Gustavo Guerrante. “Light rail is a success story here and around the world. It is the transition to a more sustainable Rio, with a mode of
transport approved by the population

Rio announces transition from BRT to light rail
The city will continue to improve the existing BRT corridors while
planning for conversion to LRT is underway. The schedule also
includes the delivery of major projects such as the completion of
the Transbrasil BRT route and the Gentileza interchange; the
resurfacing of the Transoeste BRT corridor; and the expansion of
the city’s bicycle path network.
Separately, Alstom has signed a contract for the 700m double-
track extension of the existing light rail network to Gentileza,
where interchange will be provided with BRT and other bus
services. View of LRT@ Rio-DE-JENERIO

VLT Carioca is a modern light rail system with 3 lines that
stop at many attractions in Central Rio. Remarkably, they
draw 80% of their electricity from underground but it’s safe
for pedestrians to walk over the rails. The remaining 20% of
VLT electricity usage is from batteries. VLT has eliminated
60% of buses and 15% of automobile traffic from Central
Rio.
The city also has vintage streetcars that run from central
Rio through Lapa across the great white arch to Santa
Teresa. They are not air-conditioned. Corcovado Tram goes
up the mountain to Christ The Redeemer Statue. The Light
Rail Transit is reached from Central Rio by vintage streetcar,
taxi, or Uber ride. View of LRT@ Rio-DE-JENERIO

Phase I :
• The Green Lane can be converted into LRT, with elevated
platforms like metro with single lane, without damaging the
stations.
• The traffic floe becomes an ease as city gets 4 lanes on
either sides.
Phase II :
• The Mixed Lane can be Underground LRT/ feeder buses to
connect inner core of the city also can connect to Airport &
inner core area of CBD Hubli Taluk

Conclusion :
• Transition helps in better function & Sustainable transport Network
for Dharwad & Hubli Taluk.
• This helps less in congestion on main roads.
• This helps the private vehicles to maneuver in city freely, without
any reasons as they get 4lane on either sides of the road.
