TransPeshawar- bus transit work in progress // BRT 16 near Peshawar board

Описание: TransPeshawar (Urdu: ٹرانز پشاور‬‎; Pashto: ټرانز پيښور‎) is a bus rapid transit system currently under construction in Peshawar, capital of Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Divided into two separate phases, the first phase of the TransPeshawar BRT system will encompass an east-west corridor to be served by 31 stations with an initial 383 buses, at a cost of ₨55.9 billion (US$530 million).

The system will have 31 stations and will be mostly at grade, with four kilometers of elevated sections and 3 elevated stations.The line will also contain 3.5 kilometers of underpasses.The entire busway will be fenced to prevent unauthorized pedestrian crossings,[3] and to prevent vehicular traffic from entering.

Buses[edit]
TransPeshawar will use a fleet of 383 buses,[4] of which 131 will be 9 metre-long buses,[5] while 252 will be 12 metre-long buses.[5] Buses on the BRT route will initially be 12 metre-long buses, though the system is designed to accommodate 18-metre long buses that may be necessary in the future.[5]

Buses will feature low-floor entrances,[5] unlike current buses that have a raised station platforms to allow ease of access.[5] Each bus will provide free Wifi services for passengers, while stations will have toilet facilities.[6] Buses will arrive every 3 minutes during peak hours, and every 5 minutes during non-peak hours.[7]

Stations[edit]
TransPeshawar's 31 stations will feature passing lanes at each station, allowing the function of a "direct service" system in which buses from suburban areas can access TransPeshawar's dedicated bus-lanes for use as an express service directly to the city's centre.[1] Each station will be on average 850 metres from the previous station, with an estimated travel time of 2 minutes between adjacent stations.[7] Stations, unlike the buses themselves, will not be air conditioned.[7]

Feeder system[edit]
The TransPeshawar system will be complemented by a feeder system consisting of 8 routes extending 68 kilometres.[8] Feeder buses will use dedicated BRT lanes as needed before exiting the system and entering onto city streets as on-street bus service.[1] The feeder routes will add an additional 100 stations along those feeder lines,[1] all of which will be new construction.[1] Feeder station will be spaced approximately 300-500 metres from one another.[1] Feeder system buses will be 9 and 12 metres long.[1]

Construction[edit]
Construction of the east-west corridor will be completed in three phases:[9]

Phase 1: Chamkani to Balahisar Fort
Phase 2: Cantonment to Aman Chowk
Phase 3: University to Hayatabad
The entire road structure along the east-west corridor will also be reconstructed, and will include a new bicycle lane.[1] The number of traffic lanes along the GT Road will also be reduced, leading to what will be intended as a more pedestrian-friendly street.[1]

Project construction was launched in November 2017, and is being built concurrent to the Peshawar Ring Road, which will redirect heavy vehicles away from the city centre. The project was awarded to consortium led by China Railway 21st Bureau Group, while engineering consulting was provided by Mott MacDonald.

Fares[edit]
The provincial government intends to collect fares via an automated ticketing system that is also intended to be used on all city routes. Currently, fares are collected by bus operators. With implementation of the automated ticketing system, bus operators will no longer collect fares.[10]

Financing[edit]
The project is being built with assistance from the Asian Development Bank. It was initially projected to cost ₨41 billion (US$390 million),[9] but its final estimated cost is approximately ₨55.9 billion (US$530 million).[11] The provincial government will borrow ₨48.8 billion (US$460 million) for the project,[12] The system will be the most expensive BRT system in Pakistan,[13] the provincial government argues that similar systems in Islamabad and Lahore actually cost ₨50 billion (US$470 million) and ₨60 billion (US$570 million) respectively.[13] The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government claims include costs of parallel roadworks project undertaken with the construction of the metro such as the Model town underpass in Lahore and the Cloverleaf interchange in Rawalpindi.
