Test-Runs Start on BRT
Last night (Feb. 4th) in Guangzhou, the BRT underwent a test-run ahead of its opening next Wednesday (Feb. 10th). Last night's tests were successful as they showed clear areas in need of improvement. More from our reporter Li Hui:
Some passengers did complain of the possible chaos when the system gets up and running. There are no clear instructions about which bus is arriving at the bus stop. A passenger said,

"The buses will pull up to the bus stop one after the other and there are buses operating on at least six routes at this stop. Passengers will clearly be frustrated trying to find which bus should take and if my bus is at the end of the bus queue, it will take a while to get on the bus."
