BCN Ecologia and Salvador Rueda
Please familiarize yourselves with Salvador’s work and that of the Agency of Ecological Urbanism. Check out especially these two books:
The proposal is based on an orthogonal grid scheme: a new bus network for a new global model of sustainable mobility. The first stage started in Fall 2012, and now first 5 lines are running. Thanks to the logical design of the network, increases of commercial speed and frequency are allowed, the readability of the network is clearer, any point in the city is reached with a single transfer (in 95% of cases), the connection with other public transport are is improved and provides uniform coverage throughout the city.
