FOOTWAY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR BUS STOPS
7.12
Specification of these kerbs with a maximum kerb show height of 160mm is ideal for low-floor buses to get as near as possible to the kerb, but kerbs higher than 125mm may cause damage to the underside of a low-floor bus if it has to approach at an angle. To avoid this easy access kerbs or similar should be considered in the following situations
• Bus boarders/footway build-outs;
• Conventional bus lay-bys with straight section dimension of
15m or more
Shallow sawtooth lay-bys;
• Straight kerb edge bus stop locations where parked vehicles are unlikely to interfere with the bus approach and,
• Road narrowing (traffic calming) features.
