Abstract

The article considers the problem of long distance bus mobilityand sets the tasks for improving the quality of passenger services by developing bus terminals and bus stations. There are the analysis of foreign experience and the review of existing scientific approaches on the methods of the location and operation of bus terminals and stations in major cities. The authors highlights three main methods of their location and proposes to use a qualitative method toassess the quality of the placement of bus terminals and stations as the basic approach to their system formation. The article describes the principle of the proposed method application and shows the example of the quality properties tree. There are proposals to use special index to assess the location of bus terminals and stations, which will allow quantifying the efficiency of their development in the transport planning structure of the city.

Keywords

bus, bus station, qualitative method, location index, the quality properties tree.
