　　The year 2011 witnesses the historic moment in the process of urbanization in China, whose city population surpasses rural population for the first time. In the next 20 years, it is estimated that about 350 million rural population will migrate to cities. Such scale of urban development brings both challenges and opportunities for urban transportation. The Chinese government has always been advocating the “people-oriented” development concept, emphasizing that people should travel by bus instead of by private car. At the same time, the construction of a resource-conserving and environment-friendly society is also what the government is appealing to. With this clear goal, China can better plan its cities’ development and divert a lot of investment to develop the safe, clean and economical transport system.
