Problem Statement*One of the major problems faced by the Indian urban
cities is the problem of traffic congestion. A big concern is how to speed up the traffic.
*Putting more buses on the road will jam the roads even worse and pollute the air.

Continued…*Building more subway is costly and time consuming. So there is a need to
device a system compatible with existing infrastructure to reduce congestion.
*With the increasing population of urban cities and growing deficit between the road networks and number of vehicles thus leading to pollution and waste of resources, there is a demand for efficient public transport system proposed solution

Next Generation Transit System
The model looks like a subway or light-rail train bestriding the road The bus can reduce the traffic jams 20%-30%
Powered by electricity and solar energy Reduced the traffic jams by 20%-30%.

4-4.5M high with two levels passenger boat on the upper level and 7 M in width while other vehicles lower than 2M can go
Cost is about 5.36 billion rupees to build the bus and a 40KM long path for it, approximately 7% of metro system

Average speed is 40-50KM/Hr carrying 1200-1400 passengers at a time without blocking other vehicle’s way
Large windows are provided on the both lower sides so that the illusion of car moving back, is not created.

*Metro costs a lot and takes a long time to build.
*BRTS takes up road spaces and producing noise and pollution. thus producing more congestion on roads for other vehicles
*Normal bus system is not sophisticated and the buses are congested and a lot of time is wasted travelling with these buses
*Large parking spaces are required
• It is cheaper and construction takes less time
• It saves road spaces, efficient and high in capacity
• Traveling with these buses will consume less time and hence it is more sophisticated
• Large parking spaces are not required and can be parked on roads without affecting the passage of cars

Key steps involved in the implementation
*Re - modelling of the road:
Laying Rails – The rails will be laid on both sides of the road and the bus can run on the rails and save 30% energy.
![Page 15: Straddling bus presented by RK](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042615/55c38634bb61ebe07a8b4723/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
*Paint white lines The white lines on both sides of the road and buses will have auto pilots
which will follow these lines and run stable while moving.

*Building stations Load / Unload through the sides. Using the built-in-ladder so that passengers can go up and over pass through the ceiling doors. Stations can be set up at every 2Km.

Power supply to buses
![Page 18: Straddling bus presented by RK](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042615/55c38634bb61ebe07a8b4723/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Ensuring safety
* Using laser ray scanning system
* using radar scanning system
* ultrasonic waves will be put forth from the end of bus
* Escaping doors and inflated ladder for fire or emergency exit.

Source of funding
*The estimated cost is about 5.36 Billion rupees to build the straddling bus and a 40Km long path for it, which is approximately 7% of Metro system.
*Initial cost of a phase can be calculated.
*The total expenditure for that phase can be divided among Central Govt., State Govt., Soft loan and Private Public Partnership or Soft loans.

Continued…
*Some part of investment for Ex. 30% can be provided by Central Govt., 30% by State Govt., and rest can be raised by public private partnership or soft loans.
*The revenue earned will be used firstly for maintenance so that the project can run successfully and the money left after this can be used to pay the debt.

Scalability of solution
*Buses can carry 1200-1400 passengers at a time.
*Eco-friendly transit system and saves 860 Ton of fuel every year reduces 2640Ton carbon emission.
*It can produce more output from the given sources.
*It doesn’t require extra space for its development and running, like other public transport system.
![Page 22: Straddling bus presented by RK](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042615/55c38634bb61ebe07a8b4723/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Sustainability of solution
*This project is sustainable because it is compatible with the declining resources by deriving its energy from renewable world which is suffering from energy crisis. Also it provides a low cost sophisticated and comfortable travel. In India, many urban cities are being planned with Metro’s and Bullet trains which costs a lot. So this system can act as boon on coming future.

Metro rail transit system Straddling Bus system
• It requires huge infrastructure, which incurs more initial investment
• It requires more land to build. elevated structures.
• It runs only on electricity.• It can carry 1000 passengers
at a time.
• It does not require elevated structure as it runs on rails as well as road, without disturbing the traffic on road.
• It does not require more land, as rails will be laid on the road itself.
• It runs on electricity as well as solar energy.
• it can carry 1200-1400 passengers at a time.
• As subway of straddling bus will force the traffic to move in a platoon.

• Improper traffic light monitoring system
• Wide roads not available in many areas
• People's carelessness and unawareness in following traffic rules
• Maintenance problems• Poor road conditions• Government’s unwillingness
towards new transit system and keep spending on conventional transit system
• Lack of co-ordination in different departments
Challenges Solutions
• Central and efficient traffic monitoring by traffic control agencies
• Construction of wide and efficient roads
• Awareness campaigns for people and imposing heavy fines for breaking rules
• Central maintenance department can coordinate with PWD to maintain roads
• A separate central department to look after all the maintenance problems of the bus system and will be under direct control of higher authorities
• Setting up a separate head of the all departments to control and co-ordinate effectively

Conclusion
*It runs above car and under overpass, saves road space.

*It reduces up to 20-30 % of traffic jams
*It is safe, efficient and has high capacity.

Appendix*The straddling bus was first exhibited on the 13th Beijing
International High-Tech Expo.
*The basic idea was proposed by Shenzhen Hashi.
