BRT, regulatory strategy and implementation, Pully

The fluidity study is part of the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project on avenue de Lavaux in Pully. The regulation of intersections crossed by the BRT must be analyzed in order to ensure high commercial speed and good levels of service for pedestrians, bicycles and cars. Citec is responsible for establishing the intersection regulation strategy and providing the regulation and bid documents for the construction and commissioning of intersections, including final adjustments. From the beginning of the study, an eco-sustainability approach is followed in order to reuse as much as possible the equipment already in place and to minimize costs throughout the life of the project, by anticipating future needs.
