Light Rail CVLR +48% higher total lifecycle GHG emissions compared to BRT CGB
Also +21% higher operational emissions
Our new findings exhibit that BRT system is more cost- & carbon-effective

Cities with higher population density, intersection density and social environment index had lower motorcyclist mortality. More curvilinear street layout and the presence of public transportation showed a non-significant association with mortality
October 4, 2025 at 1:02 PM
The crude city-level motorcyclist mortality rate was 4.16 per 100,000 population. Age-standardized rates varied from 0.51 to 22.60. Males had higher mortality rates, with the highest rates in 20-24-year-olds.

The frequency, shelters, and low cancelation rate are the most
critical aspects of the Buses of High Level of Setvice BHLS to gain ridership🚌

Some applications, like Bogotá BRT, have been able to carry extreme ridership at a very low relative cost
Calling it a failed planning concept is not precise

Most motorcycle traffic fatalities occur at night, and higher speeds
@wrirosscities.bsky.social
March 12, 2025 at 12:54 AM
Motorcycle traffic fatalities are related to middle and low income areas
Example: Bogotá 🇨🇴
