A Comprehensive Logical Model of Bus Terminal Planning Standards in India
Abstract: In India, presently, there are no guidelines available for bus terminal planning standards based on varied passenger characteristics. Since human comfort is a primary design consideration in architectural design planning, design standards for passengers must be based on a relative scale to provide the desired design environment anthropometrically. The requirement for this research is to help resolve the problems faced by planners and architects due to lack of comprehensive design …
