Abstract
Bus-terminal is an essential component of urban transport facilities which defines the beginning (origin) or end (terminating) of the line for the transportation system. It normally requires a size-able land in a strategic part of an urban area. A well planned or managed bus-terminal will act as catalyst to the social and economic development of the surrounding areas. On the other hand, bus-terminal is an asset to an area as it may act as catalyst to economic and social development of the surrounding areas. However, poorly planned and sited terminal for buses may generate traffic problems as well as deteriorating the quality of life of the affected surroundings. This project focuses mainly the structural design of whole bus terminal. As with engineering and operational aspects of terminal facilities the focus would be on the design to fulfill traffic capacity requirement and operational efficiency to operators and passengers. The proposed far side terminating bas terminal model which located outside city centre may have added advantages such as reducing unnecessary congestion and improving the environment.
Objectives: This project have following main objectives:
Conducting research on the existing bus terminal of a city and proposing a new model of bus
terminal according to findings
