Abstract
A research is conducted into the applicability of different Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) configurations. Based on knowledge acquired from researching a set of reference systems a BRT design model is formulated. This model is subsequently implemented into a tool, the BRT design scanner. This scanner provides the possibility to investigate, based on the local conditions, the applicable BRT configuration. Finally, to assess the quality of the scanner, it is applied to the BRT service through Leidsche Rijn.
