The document discusses the Transit Elevated Bus (TEB), a proposed next-generation transit system. The TEB is a large bus that straddles above two lanes of road, allowing other vehicles to pass below it. This reduces traffic jams by up to 30% while maintaining a high passenger capacity of 1200. Compared to existing transit options, the TEB has lower costs, takes up no road space, and produces no pollution. It also features safety mechanisms like radar, cameras and emergency exits. The document outlines the TEB's implementation process and argues it could help address India's traffic, pollution and fuel issues due to its eco-friendly design and short construction timeline.

INTRODUCTION

4. The concept of Transit Elevated Bus(TEB) was introduced in China in 2010,
which is the world’s largest polluter. Currently, four types of public transport
systems are used in China.
That are,
 Subway
 Light rail train
 BRT(Bus rapid Transit)
 General bus

 High initial cost
 Long time to build
 High maintenance
SUBWAY

6. 6
 Reconstruction of roads
 Chances of accidents
 Comparatively slow
LIGHT RAIL TRAIN

7. 7
BUS RAPID TRANSIT(BRT)
 Takes more road space
 Pollution
 Noise

8. 8
GENERAL BUS
 Noise
 Pollution
 Less capacity
 Parking space

NEXT GENERATION TRANSIT SYSTEM
The model looks like a
subway or a light-rail
train bestriding the road
on both sides.
Powered by electricity or
solar energy.
Reduces the traffic jams
by 20%-30%.

10. 10
TRANSIT ELEVATED BUS [TEB]
 Huge elevated public bus.
 Straddles on two road lines.
 Can Carry 1200 passengers.
 Allows smaller vehicles to
pass under it.
 Takes no road space.
 Reduces traffic jam by 30%.
 Powered by electricity or
solar power.
 Can reach speeds up to 37
mph(60 kph).

11. 11
Costs about 5.36 billion
rupees to build the bus and
a 40KM long path for it,
approximately 7% cost
of metro system.
Its 4 - 4.5 M( nearly 15
feet) high with a passenger
deck and 7 M in width
while other vehicles lower
than 2 M( nearly 7 feet) can
move under it.
FEATURES OF TEB

12. 12
FEATURES OF TEB
 Warning alarms are provided
underneath to warn cars from getting
too close to the bus (radar scanning).
 Cameras are fitted at the bottom which
can be used to monitor from the driver
cabin.
 Large windows are provided to avoid
backward illusion for the vehicles
passing below it.

13. 13
 Big cities can be modernise their
traffic signalling system to
prioritize public buses.
 Emergency braking system is
provided incase of accidents or
emergency situations.
FEATURES OF TEB

14. 14
 Escaping doors (similar to inflated
ladder in planes) are in-built.
 Built-in slides engage when necessary
during any emergency situations.
FEATURES OF TEB

15. 15
 Ultrasonic waves are put forth from
the end of the bus, that is to keep high
cars or trucks away from entering
under the bus.
 Indicates light when any obstacles are
in the path of the vehicle.
FEATURES OF TEB

16. 16
 Metro costs a lot and takes
a long time to build.
 BRTs takes up road spaces
and produces noise and
pollution.
 General buses have less
capacity.
 Large parking spaces are
required.
16
 It is cheaper and construction
takes less time.
 It saves road spaces, efficient and
high in capacity.
 Traveling with these buses will
consume less time so its more
sophisticated and time efficient.
 Large parking spaces are not
required and can be parked on
roads without affecting other
vehicles.
Present Transit Systems Straddle Bus System

17. 17
 Re - modelling of the road:
 Laying Rails - The rails will be
laid on both sides of the road and
the bus can run on the rails and
saving 30% energy due to less
wheel rolling resistance.

KEY STEPS INVOLVED IN IMPLEMENTATION
Paint White Lines - The white lines
are painted on both sides of the road
and buses will have auto pilots
which will follow these lines and run
stable while moving.

18. 18
 There are also two ways in dealing
with station platform.
 load/unload through the side
platforms.
 Using the built-in ladder at stations,
so that passengers can go up and to
the overpass through the ceiling
door.
BUILDING STATIONS

19. 19
 MUNICIPAL ELECTRICITY
 The setting is called relay direct current
electrification.
 Bus itself is electrical conductor.
 Two rails built on top.
 Allow charging post to run along the rails
of the bus.
 PARTLY SOLAR POWER
 Use super capacitor.
 It can charge, discharge and store
electricity quickly.
 Charging is done when bus stops on
station.
 Achieving zero toxic gas on the process
 Solar panels provided on the stations
POWER SUPPLY TO BUS

20. 2020
Metro rail transit system Straddle Bus system
 It requires huge
infrastructure, which incurs
more initial investment
 It requires more land to
build. elevated structures.
 It runs only on electricity.
 It can carry 1000 passengers
at a time.
 It does not require elevated
structure
 It does not require more
land, as rails will be laid on
the road itself.
 It runs on electricity as well
as solar energy.
 it can carry up to 1200
passengers at a time.
 Eco-friendly

21. 21
 India is second largest in population.
 Because of High population density, India's major cities are
facing traffic jams. 30% of traffic jams can be avoid by using
straddle bus.
 As a developing nation India facing air pollution. Straddle bus
can prevent 2640 tons of carbon emissions that 40 buses emit
annually.
 Fuel cost in India is high comparing with other nations. 860
tons of fuel can be save by using straddle bus.
 Shortest construction life cycle of nearly 1 year to build for a
40kms path.
 Can be implemented in most of the Metropolitan cities.
WHY IN INDIA ?

22. 22
 It runs above cars and other road vehicles, saves road
space.
 It uses electric or solar power and thus reduces the air
pollution.
 It reduces up to 20-30 % of traffic jams.
 It is safe, efficient and has high capacity.
 It is eco- friendly
CONCLUSION

23. 23
 The Straddling bus was first exhibited on the 13th
Beijing international high-tech expo in 2010.
 The basic idea was proposed by Shenzhen Hashi Future
Parking Equipment Company.
 First trial run was done in Beijing's Mentougou district
by late 2016.
 The city of Manaus, Brazil is planning to install this bus
on their streets.
