摘要：快速公交(BRT)已经在我国部分城市开展了规划和建设，但人们对快速公交还存在不同的认识。鉴于BRT的建设和运营是对很多传统理念的全面挑战，提出了城市空间和道路资源的分配标准、机动车要按道路的使用程度收费、今后不承建任何仅仅为了改善小汽车通行能力的交通工程和交通设施的理念，并进一步明确了BRT的特点和定位，即大运量快速公共汽车系统是利用现代化大容量专用公共交通车辆，在专用的道路空间快速运行的公共交通方式，具有与轨道交通相近的运量大、快捷、安全等特性，且建设周期短，造价和运营成本相对低廉。认为优先发展BRT是一个系统工程，首先，要完善资金投入的政策，必须坚持以政府投入为主；其次，必须明确路权分配要向BRT倾斜，以解决认识上的误区。

Abstract: As Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems are in the process of being planed and constructed in cities of China, there have been diverse understanding of the systems. Since the construction as well as the operations of BRT is an overall challenge to traditional understanding, the paper proposes some ideas regarding the distribution standards of urban space and road resources, the collection of fees according to the use of urban roads, and the transportation infrastructure will not be implemented only for auto traffic in the future. The paper also identifies the characteristics and roles of BRT, in other words, the BRT system is a rapid transit mode integrated with high capacity buses and dedicated right-of-way, it's similar to rail transit with mass capacity, swiftness and safety, moreover, short construction period, cheaper construction and operation costs are also some of the advantages. The development of BRT systems with a high priority is a system project, of the most important is to improve the finance policy, public funding must be the main resource of BRT system, besides, the right-of-way allocation must prefer the BRT systems. Only with all the above issues made clear, will the misunderstanding be avoided.
