Background
Ahmedabad has a population of 5,570,585 as per 2011
census,[7] which is likely to be 11 million by the year 2035.
This would lead to agglomeration of surrounding settlements
like Naroda and other smaller villages, which ultimately
increases the area of the city, which may become 1,000 km2
in the year 2035. Ahmedabad has limited public transport options. Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation and Gujar
State Government initiated a plan for integrated public transit system, in which Bus Rapid Transit System) is one o
the components, to facilitate the major mobility need of the people. In future, this system will get integrated with

Nehru Nagar - Shivranjani Crossroad
Corridor
Ahmedabad BRTS at night
MEGA by the addition of two lines running through east to west and north to south in the city.[6] Upcoming Gujar
International Finance Tec-City (GIFT) would be easily accessible through this multimodal mix of Rapid Transport
Systems.[6]
It has system designs quite similar to Curitiba's Rede Integrada de
Transporte and Bogota's TransMilenio. By following this system Chennai
BRTS and Bangalore BRTS are also under implementation and Mumbai
BRTS and Bhubaneswar BRTS are under planning.
[6]
Technical procedures was started in 2006.[8] A part of the first corridor
connecting Pirana to RTO Junction was opened to public on October
14, 2009 by Chief Minister of Gujarat, Narendra Modi.[6] Second half
of the first phase of the BRTS was inaugurated on December 25, 2009.
It was stretched up to Kankaria Lake later to cater eastern part of the
city.
Planning
Prof.H.M Shivanand Swamy, an economist and urban planner by training
and is the Associate Director, CEPT University spearheaded the planning
and implementation of BRTS in Ahmedabad by mapping various
corridors and feeder networks. Besides giving priority to buses, the
system is designed to provide dedicated lanes for pedestrian and non-
motorized vehicles like cycles and rickshaws etc.[6][8]
Feasibility Report (2005): First study initiated by the state project
development agency, Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board, initiated preparation of a feasibility report for bu
rapid transit system. The study, based on a detailed assessment of demand, socio-economic characteristics andtechnical feasibility, identified BRTS development over 58 kilometers of road network.[6]
Detailed Project Report (2005): Based on the feasibility report prepared by CEPT, a detailed project report fo
submission under JNNURM program of the Government of India was prepared by CEPT. The project has been
sanctioned by the Ministry of Urban Development (India). The project report included detailed planning of
roadway as well as development of other supporting infrastructure and operating systems.[6]
Detailed System Design and Implementation Support (2006-ongoing):BRTS- Ahmedabad is under
implementation. Detailed system design and support during construction is being provided by CEPT team. The
team had already made some 100 minor design changes to avoid difficulties faced by Delhi and Pune inimplementation.[6][9]
Selection of Corridors
Based on an analysis of the socio-economic factors, travel demand patterns, road network characteristics,
proposed metro plan and existing Ahmedabad Municipal Transport Service (AMTS) route network as the criteria
a network of roads covering about 155 kilometers in length have been identified for developing the Bus Rapid
Transit System within Ahmedabad.[6]

Corridors
Given the expected travel demand on each corridor, BRTS solutions are structured.The operations plan develope
not only provides route structure for BRT operations but also the rationalised routing plan for AMTS operations.
This is necessary so that the two systems compliment each other rather than compete with each other. In terms of
routes following three types of routes are structured to operate transit services - BRTS Trunk Routes,Complementary Routes (AMTS)and BRTS Feeder Routes.[6]
Corridors are as follows:[1] Operational corridors Underconstruction corridors Proposed corridors
