Public Transport Stops Around The World

• Bus bays allow buses to arrive at a stop, but it does not impede the flow of traffic on the roadway
Research
A number of research efforts have concluded that the optimal bus stop spacing for most transit routes is somewhere between 1000–2000 feet (300-600m). Many transit agencies have developed guidelines for preferred bus stop spacing. In most U.S. cities, however, the typical bus stop spacing is between 650 and 900 feet (200–275 m), well below the optimal.
