???? In your original analysis, you took your 7,500 and 39 buses, and then said "f you are trying to move 10,000 people an hour at peak times you need 56 BRTs running one every minute or 25 LRTs running every 2.4 minutes. In a dedicated right-of-way configuration like Ottawa's this is the limit of the BRTs". This clearly implies you think that Ottawa is getting 180 people on each bus. I can assure you when I've ridden the transitway in Ottawa, that there is no where near 180 people on each bus - I'd be surprised if it is 100 - unless something has dramatically changed!
The numbers are blatantly incorrect. They may be published, but there is no way that any agency is averaging this number of people on an 18-metre bus.
It's not technically possible using the vehicles and frequencies you've used. I'm not sure why you don't understand this.
Well, if you choose to believe that there's nothing I can do to stop you. The evidence is out there.
