Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a high quality bus based on a transit system that delivers passengers in a fast and comfortable manner. The BRT also ensures effective urban mobility through the provision of segregated busways and a bus-only roadways infrastructure. However, most of the cities in Korea have already adopted railroads under the trunk roads. Also, because there is no available ground to construct a highway, cities must utilize existing highways. Therefore, this study will explore the possibility of the introduction of the BRT in the case of Busan. From the result of the exploration, it is possible to suggest which priority conditions should be considered in the early phase of BRT corridor selection. Also, it is possible to choose a corridor as a candidate BRT in Busan. Lastly, it is possible to construct a use demand model of a BRT from potential users and estimate the use probability.
