Bus Stop

Opening context:
Mini-Buses

Conflict

Bus stops must be easy to recognize, and pleasant, with enough activity around them to make people comfortable and safe.

Resolution

Build bus stops so that they form tiny centers of public life. Build them as part of the gateways into neighborhoods, work communities, parts of town. Locate them so that they work together with several other activities, at least a news stand, maps, outdoor shelter, seats, and in various combinations, corner groceries, smoke shops, coffee bar, tree places, special road crossings, public bathrooms, squares...

Closing context:
Main Gateways, Public Outdoor Room, Seat Spots, A Place to Wait, Food Stands
