Tóm tắt

The success of BRT systems in cities such as Curitiba (Brazil), Bogotá (Colombia), Jakarta (Indonesia), Guangzhou, Beijing, Kunming (China), and Seoul (South Korea) has inspired the widespread adoption of the BRT model. However, popularize BRT systems worldwide has not always yielded successful outcomes, as evidenced by the dismantling of BRT systems in New Delhi (India), Bangkok (Thailand), and Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) due to operational inefficiencies. This highlights the necessity of customizing BRT systems to suit the unique conditions of each city. This paper presents an analysis of the urban context of Ho Chi Minh City, addressing factors such as population distribution, land use, travel behavior, and the current state of transport infrastructure, to propose a BRT model optimized for the city’s specific conditions. The proposed result is a small-capacity BRT system with dedicated lanes shared with regular buses and open stations serving each direction is the most appropriate solution for the city. These research findings can be applied in the design of future BRT routes in Ho Chi Minh City
