  1. Asia BRT Conference HUBLI-DHARWAD BRTS PROJECT Presented by: Commissioner, DULT

  2. SOME FACTS • Twin cities separated by about 20 km. • Single municipal area: 202 sqkm • Population : 0.94 million(2011) • Density: 4678 persons per sq.km. • Hubli: commercial centre and business hub of the region. • Dharwad: administrative seat of the District and Educational hub of the region. INDIA KARNATAKA NAVALGUND DHARWAD NAVANAGAR HUBLI KUNDGOL KALGHATGI DHARWAD DISTRICT Growth direction: along the corridor between the two cities.

  3. Travel Characteristics • Two lane road. • Average time taken: Peak period : 64 mins • Public transport: main mode. • 0.17 million use PT every day. • PT operator: NWKRTC, a state government undertaking. • 6000-7000 PHPDT. Buses comprises 7 % of total traffic along the corridor; carry 70 % of the passengers.

  4. Context • Project sanctioned for widening of two lanes to four lanes. • Overall PT mode share for the twin cities: 30% • Two-wheelers: 67% of total vehicles. • Vehicle growth rate: 9.5 % • Mobility plan projected drop in PT share to 25% by 2028. Concerns for PT 45% of fleet over-aged, Congested buses, poor infrastructure, lack of last mile connectivity.

  5. ISSUES Wouldn’t widening to four lanes be enough? Is BRT required at this point of time? • BRT-land acquisition costs, resettlement issues.

  6. Wouldn’t widening to four lanes be enough? • Present V/C : 1.3 • Even with 4 laning : V/C > 1 before 2020. • With BRTS, V/C : 0.84 in 2031.

  7. Is BRT required at all? BRT-land acquisition; costs, resettlement issues. High EIRR( 29.5%) Benefits: savings in vehicle operating costs, commuter time, benefits due to accident reduction, savings due to reduction in carbon emissions etc. Total benefits valued at US $ 611 million in present value terms. Makeover of PT required to retain present share; to attract more commuters. Public transport needs focus - NOW not LATER.

  8. OPERATING COSTS NEED NOT BE SUBSIDIZED.
