Buses are an essential element of the public transport mix. They connect communities to their end destination or to other mass transit modes such as rail and air where they are either unavailable or too expensive.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PROVIDING ACCESS ESSENTIAL RESOURCES<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Buses are the most widely used form of public transport around the world and are the most cost-effective and flexible form of public transport. Buses promote social inclusion through low-cost fares and access to healthcare and education via flexible route planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buses also help ease traffic congestion by replacing up to 30 cars on the road and provide a sustainable alternative through new innovations in electrification and alternative fuels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BUS RAPID TRANSIT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

BRT systems are modern, high-performance, and combine all the advantages of a bus (agility and lightness) with dedicated public transport lanes allowing speed, capacity, and punctuality. It also offers improved ticket systems and constant passenger information updates, making it a highly efficient method of travel. Optical guidance systems on board also allow for systematic high-precision docking and berthing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SYSTRA can bring a wide range of innovative solutions to BRT projects, be it in terms of capacity, frequency, urban integration, accessibility, and comfort. Our multidisciplinary approach means we can take on all the challenges of a BRT project: shared public spaces, passenger needs, costs, specifications, operating systems, infrastructures, etc., allowing us to deliver tailored solutions to suit the individual needs of different public authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ELECTRIC BUSES<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the measures to decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is to convert current diesel bus fleets to zero-emission vehicles, such as battery-electric buses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conversion to an all-electric fleet brings new challenges in all phases of the project, which is why we at SYSTRA Canada have developed the tools and know-how to help you at every step of your fleet electrification projects and ensure a successful delivery to our customer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also strive to minimize the investment cost by sizing the charging infrastructure according to your real operational needs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
