Abstract:

Analyses were made of the reliability and maintainability of current urban buses and were conducted in support of the Transbus program. The paper presents the results and discusses the off-guideway operating environment of dual mode vehicles, particularly street conditions, traffic accidents, and vandalism. Design implications related in maintainability and reliability of dual-mode vehicles in off-guideway operation are presented. /Author/
