D Intersection treatments 7
E Platform-level boarding 7
Dedicated right-of-way
Median lanes
> Reduce conflict with property entrances,
parking, turning vehicles
> Reduce conflict with pedestrians, cyclists
> Increase driver stress and productivity
Why curb-side alignment doesn’t work
Two-phase squareabouts
reduce intersection delay by
combining straight and
turning movements
Preventing right turns across the busway

Buses should not
have inside steps.
