Thing about new establishment of route bus
Last Updated June 5, 2023
New construction or extension of route buses will be covered by the fare revenue from the user, so the bus operator will judge based on the fact that the bus operator will match the income and expenditure.
In addition, in Motoichi, we promote "local traffic support business" to perform various support from plan to service so that local-based approach for introduction of local traffic advances smoothly. We hope that you will share this project with local residents and utilize it. First, please consult with the ward office Ward Administration Promotion Division or Urban Development Bureau Urban Transportation Division.
Route buses that can go to multiple places with one flight are convenient, but the operating distance is longer and it is difficult to secure profitability.
Therefore, narrowing down the destination of the route, shortening the operating distance, and increasing the number of flights will improve the convenience of users and make it easier to secure profitability.
Based on the above points, each bus operator will judge the decision to establish a new route bus.
For route buses, operating expenses are covered by fare income from users, and certain revenues are in the black, which is a condition for new routes.
Based on the above points, each bus operator will judge the decision to establish a new route bus.
Route bus routes are planned on roads where safe and smooth operation is possible and the width and outlook of roads are secured while determining whether bus operators can secure profitability.
The bus stop is located from the viewpoint of distance from the intersection, road prospects, and safety and smoothness of road traffic, such as whether there is a problem with passing of oncoming vehicles. It is installed after obtaining the permission of the police and the understanding of the residents adjacent to the bus stop setting location.
