www.chinabuses.org: On 26th June Tianjin Public Transportation Group (Holding) Co., Ltd. opened ten new branch bus lines, which further improved the present bus network coverage. As a fleet of 100 light buses of Hongkong style from Xiamen Golden Dragon coming into service, the transportation for “the last mile” will become really convenient for the residents in Tianjin.
The average length of these branch bus lines will be around 7km with an expected daily carrying capacity of about 5,000 passengers. According to sources, the first bus departure time will be earlier than 6:30 a.m. and the last bus departure time will be later than 21:00 p.m. in the ten new lines. As the present bus fare, the one-price ticket will be applied.
According to insiders, the transportation for “the last mile” provided by the new branch bus lines will bring conveniences for the residents and efficiency for the bus operation. As the supplement to the urban main bus line network, their appearance will avoid the repeated construction and reduce the waste of bus resources, therefore to some extent it will also raise the bus interchange concept among the ordinary people.
According to the technicians of Xiamen Golden Dragon, their light bus of Honkong style has been well received in such cities as Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Xiamen after operation. The bus, which is 7 meters in length and 2.05 meters in width, modeled itself on the light bus in Hongkong. With a good driving stability and a low noise, the spacious bus gives more detailed attention to its passengers in design. For example, the new LED screen in the front of the bus makes station reporting during night clearer. The first step height is only 28 cm above the ground, which will make the bus boarding more convenient for the old and the children.
