All I want for bus stops are my... As contributed by KL Commuter: 1. Bus stop-specific spider maps showing destinations of routes passing through this bus stop, ala London. 2. "About bus stop aesthetics, I hope they can do something about it la. Look at all the Putraliner bus stops that have been abandoned after they closed the routes. They are not very nice to look at, and when it rains, water can be easily blown in. Shouldn't we do something like Singapore's? With a wider shade, with incline in one direction and a gutter to collect and drain off the water? <snipped>" As contributed by Streetwalker: 1. Please ensure that if bus stops aren't located on a straight part of the road, that they are sited into the curve of roads, rather than away from the curve. If they are on a straight part of the road, please ensure that seats are diagonalized (serong) for commuters to see oncoming buses. Many times, commuters have to stand up close to the road because they are not able to have a good view. 2. Please ensure a good locus of view towards oncoming buses. Often, there are obstructions such as pillars, plants, street furniture, etc. 3. Besides advertising, bus shelter should include space for bus route information. 4. Most hubs like KL Sentral, Titiwangsa and Warta Lama are split up into different roads and locations. Do ensure connectivity or at least information pointing out to the other stop (on Jalan Batu Caves).
