Abstract

Rapid urbanisation and motorisation in China have led to serious traffic congestion problems, and efficient public transport systems are urgently needed to solve this problem. Bus rapid transit (BRT) systems have emerged as a viable and economical solution to urban transportation challenges. This study employs a case study methodology to explore the inception and evolution of the BRT system in Changzhou City, China. It examines key aspects such as the development history, operational efficiency, environmental impacts, and public perception of the BRT system in the city. The findings indicate that the BRT system has effectively alleviated traffic congestion, enhanced public transport efficiency, and fostered environmental sustainability by utilizing clean energy vehicles. Furthermore, the study highlights the synergy between urban planning and BRT development, underscoring its potential contributions to economic growth. This research offers valuable insights and innovative strategies for advancing BRT systems in urban settings.
