Ahmedabad's BRT worked because it was planned not as an isolated line but as a proper network right from the start, with wide, dedicated lanes and clear stations that felt safe and orderly. But from my verandah, I know a plan only works if it respects the daily rhythm of the place — my sewing machine stops when the rain comes, no matter how good the design. So I'd say its real success was that the city made it a matter of local pride, a "Janmarg" for everyone, and kept it simple and reliable, like my neighbour recognising the exact colour of a marigold on my cushion.
