Know Something about Different Types of Bus Services

Do you have any idea about bus transportation? Is it comes later or before the railway transit? And when did the public bus transportation become popular? In my childhood, I ever thought that the buses http://www.ecvv.com/company/shuchi/products.html were magic boxes, they can take people to everywhere. Then, I liked to take school bus to my school during the school age. After graduation from university, I always take a bus going  home. Compared with the years before, buses have developed many different types, sizes, and additional functions. Buses have become an important tool for us to go around. Although there are trains or planes, I prefer to choose buses.

Bus services play a major role in the public transport. These services can take many forms, varying in distance covered and types of vehicle used, and can operate with fixed or flexible routes and schedules. There are different types of bus services, like urban transport, long distance transport, flexible and specialist services.

Urban or suburban bus services is the most common type of public transport bus service, and is used to transport large numbers of people in urban areas, or to and from the suburbs to population centres. These services are often organised on a network basis centred on an urban centre of a town, or across a city, and may involve universal liveries, or specific route branded buses. Express bus services are services that are intended to run faster than normal buses, travelling on faster roads such as freeways rather than slower moving local roads.

Long distance coach services are bus services operated over long distances between cities. These services can form the mainstay of the travel network in countries with poor railway infrastructure.

Buses in public transport are usually run to a fixed route and schedule, serving specified bus stops or bus stations. Some services may be semi-flexible in that they can vary where they stop on a fixed route by operating in a hail and ride manner. The route and schedule of some services may also be flexible to some degree. Another flexible type of service is the Hong Kong red public light bus. Have you ever been to Hong Kong? You can see the light buses here.

About the specialist bus service, school bus services can be one. They transport children to and from school. Many countries and school districts organise their own services. Shuttle bus services are any type of bus service intended primarily to shuttle passengers between two fixed points. These can be bus or coach operated, but are usually short or medium distance journeys taking less than an hour. Shuttle buses will usually link with other transport hubs, such as airport shuttle buses. A common use of a shuttle bus is in towns or cities with multiple terminal train stations or bus stations.

I have a question for you, which is "Do you know where to find amazing buses?", how about this one http://www.ecvv.com/product_directory/bus.html?
