More information

Background information:
(Bus) stops are parking lanes (intended for trucks or buses) that are parallel to, but next to, the lane. They can be recognized by their ample length and gently increasing and decreasing width at the start and end, so that trucks and buses can more easily exit and merge at relatively high speeds. Sometimes bus stops are located directly on the line, but on busy roads and at "time stops" such a bus stop port is the only correct option. In those situations, through traffic would be too hindered by stationary buses. However, these locations can also occur without bus stop poles and bus shelters. It is then intended, for example, as a loading and unloading area, emergency lane or taxi stand.

So it is up to the builder to decide whether to add bus stop posts and bus shelters to his own taste at this bus stop.

Structural details:
(Bus) stops occur both inside and outside built-up areas. However, the examples within built-up areas have a sidewalk connection with surrounding infrastructure. Outside built-up areas, the sidewalk can form an "island". Within built-up areas, we sometimes see concrete slabs for the (bus) stop port paving material, but often also paving elements such as paving stones, usually red-brown in color, or concrete paving stones, usually in shades of gray. The choice in this regard can partly be determined by the era.

Recommended:
Keep color differences between the following elements:

  • Paving incl. gutters and sidewalks: e.g. light gray or gray
  • Curbs: e.g. gray or dark gray
