Resumen: In recent decades, the main focus in public transport operations has been increasing its speed. Increasing speed not only allows for faster trips, but also a higher frequency with the same fleet, thus reducing waiting times and crowdedness inside the vehicles. This interest in speed has ignored a second key dimension in level of service: reliability. In this article, we provide a full range of impacts of an unreliable public transport service. We demonstrate how regularising headway could improve level of service beyond the gains of simply increasing the operational speed. Regular headways positively affect comfort, reliability, travel and wait time, operational costs, and even some urban impacts of bus services. Thus, the focus for public transport agencies and operators should be redirected to reliability. This is fundamental for making public transport an attractive travel alternative and therefore must become a core goal for urban sustainability.

Presented by Gabriel Oliveira, Gabriel Oliveira, ITDP Brazil Public Transport Coordinator, on September 20th, 11:30 Brasilia Time Zone. Complete title: BRT in Brazil: state of the practice as from the BRT Standard & challenges for operations and integration Summary: Between 2004 and 2014, the total extension of BRT systems almost quadrupled worldwide, rising from about 700 km to 2,600 km (ITDP, 2014). In an effort to monitor and guarantee an standard quality of service across systems, the Institute of Transport and Development Policy (ITDP) has consolidated, along with BRT planning experts and practitioners, a project and operations evaluation tool: the BRT Standard. The tool is divided in seven categories and 42 quantitative metrics that allow further comprehension of BRT state of the practice. It has been used to evaluate more than a hundred corridors in over 60 cities around the world. In Brazil, where the concept has first been developed between the 70’s and 90’s, a second wave of BRT expansion in the last decade summed up more than 250 km built in nine cities and metropolitan regions, an increase of about 150%. In this presentation we aim to assess the state of the practice in sixteen operational Brazilian BRT corridors, drawing out the common challenges faced in their implementation and operations, the best practices identified and the main improvement points. The assessment is based in an exploratory and explanatory analysis of their BRT Standard scoring, where we highlight the case that stand out in each particular category or metric of the tool. Scoring reveals good performance in basic BRT infrastructure elements (such as segregated bus lanes that are typically median aligned, off-board fare collection, level boarding and bus priority at intersections) and in service planning. Performance in categories such as station design, infrastructure sustainability and branding/information communications present greater variance depending on the corridor context. However, the main challenges appear on the access and integration category, where system design and connection with the surrounding urban environment and active modes present flaws, and on operational issues, such as overcrowding and inadequate maintenance. This webinar will present the opportunity for participants to debate on these operational and integration challenges and how can they be overcome. In a broader manner, this study also aspires to influence for more evidence-based policy and decision-making on urban transit investments, not only in the Brazilian context, but also in other contexts where BRT is steadily growing.

Heather has 25 years of international experience and is a highly-regarded expert in sustainable transport, gender and climate change. She has worked for both public and private sectors including UITP (the International Association of Public Transport), Transport Research Laboratory, FIA Foundation, European Commission, several MDBs banks and SLoCaT (Sustainable Low Carbon Transport partnership). As Senior Manager for Sustainable Development with the UITP she led the association’s work with many international agencies on climate change, the UITP diversity initiative and with public transport agency members in more than 50 countries in respect to the UITP Sustainable Development Charter. She also set up a number of strategic partnerships with major international agencies such as the United Nations Environment Programme. she was the Programme Director for Sustainable Transport with the UK’s Transport Research Laboratory’s (TRL) Sustainable Transport Group, a leader in providing impartial world-class research and consultancy for all aspects of transport. Whilst with TRL, she provided technical advisory services for a variety of international and European projects. Her European work includes serving as a member of the jury for the European Mobility Week award for 4 years and the interim impact evaluations for the Horizon 2020 research programme for the European Commission (Shift2Rail and Societal Change). More recently, she has been working on gender and sustainable transport with UN Women, FIA Foundation and CAF. She has just concluded the Ella se mueve segura, a study investigating women’s personal security concerns when they use public transport in three Latin American cities (Buenos Aires, Argentina, Quito, Ecuador, and Santiago, Chile). She will present the findings from this study and also her work in updating the GIZ Urban Transport and Gender module of the SUTO series. Heather brings a wealth of knowledge in international best practice and a strong international network. In addition, she is a member of a number of transport sector Committees and Institutions, for example: Fellow of the UK Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transportation (CLIT), Member of Transport Research Board (TRB) Committee (USA National Academy of Science) for Developing Countries and the TRB Special Task Force for Climate Change and is an observer on Women in Transport committee. She remains an TRL associate, is a Trustee for the Walk 21 charity and is currently Chair of Transport Training Initiative (TTI) a German charity to increase access to training on transport for the developing world especially across Africa.

Camila Balbontin is a Postgraduate Research Fellow at the Institute of Transport and Logistics Studies (ITLS) of University of Sydney. In February 2018, she completed her PhD under the supervision of Professor David Hensher where she focused on integrating decision heuristics and behavioural refinements into travel choice models. She was awarded the ITLS prize for Research Excellence in Transport or Logistics 2017. Camila also holds a bachelor degree in the field of Civil Engineering with a diploma in Industrial Engineering and in Transportation and Logistics from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. She did her MSc degree at the same university under the supervision of Professor Juan de Dios Ortúzar. Her MSc thesis estimated the valuation of households and neighbourhood attributes in the centre of Santiago. As a Postgraduate Research Fellow, her main focus is choice modelling and travel behaviour. She is currently working on projects related to the BRT Centre of Excellence, business location decisions, hybrid modelling, value uplift, among others.

Connected and automated trains have been successfully built for decades. And connected and automated cars are promising to become a reality in our streets in the next decade. What about buses? What are the benefits of having buses connected and automated too? This talk will analyse some of these benefits focusing on the prospect of avoiding bus bunching and the impact this may have in the level of service of bus users.
