“TEOR” Transport Est-Ouest de Rouen(Rouen East-West Transit)

Objectives:Improve access to districts with high

population densities

Enable access to the congested shopping mall

Enable access to frequently used facilities (Government center, University Hospital center, University faculties)

Background of the East-West transport scheme

1994 (December): North-South light rail (with downtown subway) commissioned

1996 (December): Request for Proposals based on performance forecast for east-west light rail line

1997 (December): RFP declared unsuccessful due to high cost of rail option

1997 (December): New RFP for BRT-based system

Page 8: Bus Rapid Transit in Rouen, France Using Siemens Optical Guidance System Contents Community Transit OverviewCommunity Transit OverviewCommunity Transit

1999 (July): Declaration of Public Utility (i.e. Project approved for National-level funding)

2001 (February): Lines T2 and T3 West enter service

2002 (April): Line T1 West enters service2003 (February): Launch of work in Rouen

city center and to the East2007 (January – December): TEOR gradually

enters service eastwards

Dealing with Narrow Rights-of-Way

Two-way lanelength: 4.5 mi.

One-way lanelength: 3.7 mi.

Unmarked lanelength: 10.2 mi.

Vehicles travel on a two-lane busway with a concrete barrier separating them from general

traffic

Vehicles travel on a single (central or lateral), with a crossable concrete strip

separating them from general traffic

Vehicles circulate with general traffic, but with fully equipped

stations

Page 19: Bus Rapid Transit in Rouen, France Using Siemens Optical Guidance System Contents Community Transit OverviewCommunity Transit OverviewCommunity Transit

Lane StructureTEOR operation with a single center bus-lane:

• Direction of bus travel alternates by sections

• Station is always in a reserved lane so stopped bus does not block traffic

Optical guidance

5 categories of alerts • Guidance malfunction: failure of the optical guidance system (OGS): system reset. • Loss of guidance: momentary loss of guidance during operation: system reset.

• Vigilance: markings misread by the OGS.• Operational: alerts caused by operating conditions and the immediate environment of the vehicle during the guidance: system reset.

• Unclassified
