A bus stop or omnibus stop is a designated place
where a public transport bus stops for the purpose
of allowing passengers to board or leave the bus.
The simplest kind can be just a sign saying "bus
stop", or it can be a post with special colouring
or other marks identifying it as a bus stop; however,
line numbers and/or destinations are often indicated.
Scheduled stop: The bus arrives at the stop at a
set time, at which point it allows some or all passengers
to disembark and lets those waiting at the stop
board. It departs at another set time later.
Request or flag stop: The bus does not come to a
halt unless it is signalled to do so. Passengers
may signal either by pressing a button or pulling
a cord, or by verbally alerting the driver. A person
waiting at the stop may be required to flag down
the bus (no sign may be present), or his/her presence
may be sufficient... |
