摘要: Taipei is facing serious traffic congestion problem. In
order to increase the bus ridership, the two contra-flow bus
lanes had been implemented on two major arterial streets
(Xin-Yi Road and Zen-Eye Road) since February 1990.
Department of Transportation, Taipei City Government had
imposed another seven exclusive bus lanes (Sung-Chiang Road,
Hsin-Sheng-South Road, Xin-Yi Road, Zen-Eye Road, Min-Chuan-East
-West Road, Tun-Hua-South-North Road and Nan-Ching-East Road)
from January to August in 1996. Implementing exclusive bus
lane is one of many strategies to improve the urban traffic.
Because of there are several different bus lane plans, it
may have different effects by implementing bus lanes in
different countries, on different roads, and with different
related plans. In the study, we intend to study the effect
of this bus priority strategy on three issues, include the
buses' level of service,ridership and the traffic congestion
condition.
In this study, we used (1) secondary hand data , (2)
questionnaire survey and (3) field investigation to collect
the related information. This study used the statistical test
procedure to draw an appropriate conclusion from sample data
for the difference between two population parameters (before
and after). The ARIMA ( Auto-regressive integrate moving
average ) method, a time series model, also be developed for
evaluating whether the bus ridership is increased or not. The
results showed that three factors of buses' level of service
—efficiency, convenience, comfort—got positive effect,
but the safety didn't. It was also found that the ridership
of buses showed significantly increased after the bus
lanes implemented. To traffic congestion, there were no
significant effect.
We suggested that the effectiveness of exclusive bus lanes can
be further raised by improving the engineering design of bus
lanes and some adjutant strategies. These strategies
include improving signal and automatic-fare-collection
systems, coloring pavement, enforcing legislation,
educating bus drivers and civilians, providing Barrier- Free
space, enhancing buses' level of service etc..
