Topography

“TEOR” Transport Est-Ouest de Rouen (Rouen East-West Transit) Objectives: Improve access to districts with high population densities  Enable access to the congested shopping mall  Enable access to frequently used facilities (Government center, University Hospital center, University faculties)

Background of the East-West transport scheme  1994 (December): North-South light rail (with downtown subway) commissioned  1996 (December): Request for Proposals based on performance forecast for east-west light rail line  1997 (December): RFP declared unsuccessful due to high cost of rail option  1997 (December): New RFP for BRT-based system

Background to the East-West transport scheme  1999 (July): Declaration of Public Utility (i.e. Project approved for National-level funding)

 2001 (February): Lines T2 and T3 West enter service  2002 (April): Line T1 West enters service  2003 (February): Launch of work in Rouen city center and to the East  2007 (January – December): TEOR gradually enters service eastwards

Dealing with Narrow Rights-of-Way Two-way lane length: 4.5 mi.

One-way lane length: 3.7 mi.

Unmarked lane length: 10.2 mi.

Vehicles travel on a two-lane busway with a concrete barrier separating them from general traffic

Vehicles travel on a single (central or lateral), with a crossable concrete strip separating them from general traffic Vehicles circulate with general traffic, but with fully equipped stations

Lane Structure TEOR operation with a single center bus-lane: • Direction of bus travel alternates by sections • Station is always in a reserved lane so stopped bus does not block traffic

TEOR Westbound

TEOR lane

TEOR Eastbound

Lane open to general traffic

Traffic and bus signals

Lane Structure

Dedicated corridor 2 protected lanes (5.9 km) Dedicated corridor 2 reserved lanes (2.4 km) Dedicated corridor 1 protected lane (1.7 km) Dedicated corridor 1 alternating lane (3.5 km) Unmarked lane (9.5 km) Unequipped lane (6.8 km)

Lane Structure Video

Systems • System operation support • Sound systems for stations and buses • Readouts • Priority traffic lights • Special signage • Ticketing system

Signal priority

Transceiver Flashing triangle tower at highest indicates the approaching TEOR has point Oversight by the central control been detected and will (Canteleu) system have all green lights as soon as unloading/loading is confirmed by the driver

Station/Stop (located before the intersection)

Signal and Priority Video

Optical guidance Operation:

The camera reads coded marks on the ground indicating the required route

Man-machine interface

Camera Wheel encoder Torque motor

IT network

Ground marks

A computer analyses the vehicle's position relative to the lane and transmits the required corrections to the steering wheel

Gaps

Horizontal gap

Vertical gap

On average, vertical gaps are 4.25 cm high and horizontal gaps are between 4 and 5 cm wide

Optical guidance Alert rate per 10,000 landings in 2011

5 categories of alerts • Guidance malfunction: failure of the optical guidance system (OGS): system reset. • Loss of guidance: momentary loss of guidance during operation: system reset.

• Vigilance: markings misread by the OGS. • Operational: alerts caused by operating conditions and the immediate environment of the vehicle during the guidance: system reset.

1.13 per 10,000 0.02 per 10,000 0.01 per 10,000 0.30 per 10,000
