Peshawar BRTis a bus rapid transit system currently under construction by the Peshawar Development Authority (PDA) in Peshawar, capital of Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province. Divided into two separate phases, the first phase of the TransPeshawar BRT system will encompass an east-west corridor to be served by 30 stations with an initial 220 buses out of which 155 are 12-meter-long buses while 65 are 18-meter-long buses. 88% of funding is being provided by the Asian Development Bank.
✔️Features :
TransPeshawar's first phase will consist of an east-west busway which will stretch from Chamkani in the east end to the Karkhano market in the west end of Peshawar. It is planned that feeder routes will also start either before or along side main corridor.
✔️Route :
The system will have 30 stations and will be mostly elevated (around 49 %) while 38 % will be at grade and only 17 % via underpass. The line will also contain 3.4 kilometers of underpasses, 10.5 kilometers of at garade and 13.7 kilometers of elevated part . The entire busway will be fenced to prevent unauthorized pedestrian crossings, and to prevent vehicular traffic from entering. However passerbys can use stairs,elevators or bridges to cross the BRT corridor and reach on the other side.
✔️Buses :
TransPeshawar was originally planned to use a fleet of 255 buses, of which 155 will be 12 meter-long buses, while 65 will be 18 meter-long articulated buses. The articulated buses will run only within the Service route/within corridor while the 12 meter-long buses will run in primarily in the Feeder system.
The Buses will be of the low-entry type which will allow easy entry and egress from the doorways, especially for patrons using wheelchairs. Each bus will provide free Wifi services for passengers, while stations will have toilet facilities. Buses will arrive every 3 minutes during peak hours, and every 5 minutes during non-peak hours.
Furthermore, the buses will be Diesel-Electric Plug-In Hybrids which will allow them to have improved overall fuel economy and lower emissions. For this purpose, charging stations will also be built to allow for recharging of the vehicle batteries. All these buses are environment friendly and will reduce the air pollution in the city.
The contract for the supply of buses has been formally signed with Xiamen Golden Dragon Bus Co., Ltd.. The tender allowed for a variation of +/-30% in the quantity of buses, thus as a start the contract has been signed for the supply of 155 units of 12-meter buses and 65 units of 18-meter articulated buses for a total value of PKR 5.478 billion. The provision to increase the quantity of buses to a maximum of 388 buses (+30% of 299) is still present, and this may be done depending on the passenger load on the system once the initial batch of 220 buses enters operation.

✔️Stations :
TransPeshawar's 31 stations will feature passing lanes at each station, allowing the function of a "direct service" system in which buses from suburban areas can access TransPeshawar's dedicated bus-lanes for use as an express service directly to the city's centre. Each station will be on average 850 metres from the previous station, with an estimated travel time of 2 minutes between adjacent stations.[8] Stations, unlike the buses themselves, will not be air conditioned.
✔️Feeder system :
The TransPeshawar system will be complemented by a feeder system consisting of 8 routes extending 68 kilometres. Feeder buses will use dedicated BRT lanes as needed before exiting the system and entering onto city streets as on-street bus service. The feeder routes will add an additional 100 stations along those feeder lines, all of which will be new construction. Feeder station will be spaced approximately 300-500 metres from one another.
✔️Fares :
The provincial government intends to collect fares via an automated ticketing system that is also intended to be used on all city routes. Currently, fares are collected by bus operators. With implementation of the automated ticketing system, bus operators will no longer collect fares.
