GUIDE - Group for Urban Interchanges Development & Evaluation
Overview
Background & policy context:
Interchange between services is an inescapable feature of urban public transport journeys. This almost inevitably introduces some walking and waiting time for the passenger, and there may be other negative aspects of the interchanges themselves. The proportion of journeys that involve interchange ranges from less than ten percent to more than fifty percent, according to the city. The promotion of urban public transport would benefit from improving the quality of interchanges - and this needs the dissemination of good practice on interchange design.
Objectives:
The main objective of GUIDE was to develop and disseminate guidance on good practice in the functional specification and design aspects of passenger interchanges, based on case study evidence, both for the network-wide level and for the individual location level.
