• Weak Delete. Although this actual term is specific to one bus company, the concept is becoming more popular with bus companies globally. To answer Xrblsnggt's point, the issue is that these buses _don't_ have to run to a tight schedule. Let's say you expect 120 passengers an hour on a particular route. You can either run a bus that can carry 60 passengers every 30 mins - which means that it has to keep to the schedule accurately, the passengers have to know what that schedule is, and, if they miss the bus they intended to catch, they have a 29-minute wait ahead of them; or, you follow this concept, run a bus that can carry 20 passengers every 10 minutes, so that the passengers don't need to know exactly when the buses run - they just Turn Up at the bus-stop, knowing they'll have a maximum wait of 9 mins, so they can Go at their convenience rather than the convenience of the bus company. Perhaps something about the concept could go into the Bus rapid transit article? Tevildo 10:20, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
