Description
The general intent of the project is to scientifically test the capability of a low-capital cost improvement as a means of optimizing the "people carrying capability" of a radial corridor from a CBD. For the project, the following five goals were identified: - Minimize the peak hour congestion and accidents within the I-35W corridor. - Optimize the "people carrying" capability of the I-35W corridor. - Ensure that this project's results are applicable to other urban corridors here and elsewhere. - Respond to the socio-economic needs of the residents and users of the corridor. - Test the bus on metered freeway system as a fast link element within the family of vehicles concept.
