BOT (Build- Operate- Transfer)
Private (or public- private) investors build, operate and maintain
a facility
During the concession period, the investors collect Tolls from the users as return to their investments.

FARE COLLECTION SYSTEM
On board
Off board
Significant dwell times on busy BRT routesIncreased risk of fare evasion.Needs huge man-power
It supports multiple door boarding Lower dwell times. Decreased the risk of fare evasion.
