Análisis preliminar de un servicio expreso derivado de la ruta P8 del Sistema Integrado de Transporte Masivo (SITM) Metrolínea en Bucaramanga

This paper presents a preliminary analysis for the implementation of an express service derived from route P8 of the BRT Metrolínea in the metropolitan area of Bucaramanga Colombia. Background concerning methodologies adopted in express services or limited stop services were reviewed, identifying influential factors for effective implementation of the service. The data supporting the analysis were taken from surveys of the users of the studied route and observations in the BRT stops and stations, vehicles and route corridor. Possible modalities for express service are analyzed along with the assessment of current conditions of route P8, the BRT and the metropolitan area. It is concluded that the metropolitan area of Bucaramanga and the BRT system need improvements, primarily in infrastructure, for the effective implementation of an express service that meets the demands and needs of users.
