[silent-kill]

---

nag sina sina napud si abnoy... nag feasibility study na diay sila did2? pagka nalang jud sina sina kaau.

[greatoutlaw]

I still can't find the logic nganung sa manila nila gitest na it's to be implemented sa cebu man...sayang kaayo ang time wasted tungod sa pagka-defer sa project...
I'm really hoping mapush through ning brt...there is no future in jeepneys...

[supermarionism]

unsa'y resulta sa ilang testing didtu sa Manila?

[ed168III]

asa pud na isuk suk ang brt? gamay pa kaau ug dalan ang cebu, mo occupy gud na 3 lanes, 2 lanes sa bus n 1 lane sa pedestrian n infra wehehe

Kung dependable ug convenient na ang public
transpo daghan na pud tingale mga naay private vehicle
nga manakay lessening their transport budgets,
and somehow easing the traffic a bit.

ngano sad ning cebu noh wala man jud gi luagan ilang dalan daan, wala unta nila gi wait nga mo congest ug maayo.. kabawo man unta sila nga ang cebu jud ang mosunod sa manila.. awa ang davao ug cdo, gamay pa kaayo ug tawo pero ilang mga dalan dagko kaayo..

@kok3n - menos ug forward-thinking sauna...a good example kay ang first mactan bridge...single lane ra gyud...wa mag-anticipate sa boom sa cebu...
the only forward thinkers are the osmeña's...reclamation areas...

@ed168III - that has been my question pod...atay...huot nalang ta diri, BRT pa gyud...maayo tong mag-huot pero LRT/MRT na...mag-anticipate nalang ta sila ba sa development...

@<SMILE> - tinuod gyud na boss...ang mga naa'y sakyanan uban, manakay nalang sa public transport kung nindot, limpyo, maintained...
naa ko nakasakay sauna nga desente, akong gipangutana ana...ingon siya, maka-menos gyud daw bisan huot2x usahay...pero MRT to...

first, let's educate ourselves.

from the FAQ:

"How will space be made for the BRT lanes?

The first phase of the BRT line will be inserted into the middle of roads which are already wide e.g. Cebu South Road. This will take up a lane on either side of the road and remove space for ordinary traffic to use. However, because the BRT lane makes more efficient use of the road than an ordinary road lane, the amount of people that the road will be able to carry will increase and this will help to ease traffic problems for all road users."

it is very likely that existing narrow roads along the BRT route will be widened. this is a multi-billion peso project and i'm sure the people doing the study and those that will be implementing this knows what they're doing. have faith. also, they're not going at it blind. similar projects have been successfully implemented in other countries.

this should at least silence some people here who keeps on nagging about narrow roads. more details about what kind of bus to be use would also be nice.. would it be a double decker? would it be the long bus? is it airconditioned? what would the probable fare would be? as it the basis for the BRT selection over trains...less maintenance and not all pinoys in the entire philippines would be paying for the fare like what happened in MRT or was it LRT
