RESUMO

The objective of this work is the development of a methodology for terminal location definition in the Bus Urban Public Passenger Transportation System - BUPPTS. This methodology has as one of its premises that both terminals/stations and bus stops constitute a specific subsystem. Aspects that determine terminal/station locational decisions were identified. These aspects are determined by the Structure of the BUPPTS, which is formed by the functional, the management and the procurement models. The main information used in the methodology was: boarding and transfer, and vehicle frequency data. The methodology is divided into 7 stages: study area definition; time horizon definition; geodatabase development; public transportation network modeling; identification of preferred sites for terminal location; placement of bus stops and terminals, and ranking of alternatives. The developed methodology was applied to the city of Manaus, and a set of locations for the terminals were identified and ranked
