Modular bus platform to improve accessibility at bus stops.
Why the Vectorial® system?
The Vectorial® system transforms urban space and improves accessibility quickly, simply, and reversibly.
It resolves the conflict between cycle lanes and bus stops where the two overlap, allows for the construction of sidewalks or widening of existing sidewalks, and improves the accessibility of bus stops when they are in a vehicle parking area.
Vectorial® system configurations
BUS PLATFORM AS AN EXTENSION OF THE SIDEWALK.
A bus platform as a curb extension aligns the bus stop with the parking lane. Platforms as curb extensions allow buses to stop without making big sideways movements.

BUS PLATFORM WITH INTEGRATED CYCLE LANE.

BUS PLATFORM WITH ACCESS BRIDGE AND INTEGRATED CYCLE PATH.
Allows users of the cycle lane to ride behind bus stops. This reduces conflicts between them and buses, and, at the same time, creates a safe waiting area for bus users.

Customizing the Vectorial® system
The color and surface of the modules making up the Vectorial® system can be customized to adapt to the relevant regulations. The Vectorial® system also allows the integration of street furniture elements, such as canopies, bollards, pole signs, traffic lights, benches, railings, etc.
The Vectorial® system in detail
Modular system.
The Vectorial® system is made up of modules that fit together, allowing a wide variety of configurations.
Easy installation.
The modular nature of the Vectorial® system bus platform means it can be installed and removed quickly and easily. This property extends life expectancy by allowing parts from one platform to be used to build a new one or to extend an existing platform.
Surfaces.
The surface of the Vectorial® system’s main modules and ramps to the road is slip resistant and it could be modified to differentiate it from conventional paving to meet each city’s accessibility requirements.
NON-SLIP SURFACE.
WARNING SURFACE.
DIRECTIONAL SURFACE.
Curb.
The curb is a component of the Vectorial® system designed to distribute the lateral loads transmitted by bus tyres to the entire bus platform and to ensure the stability and inalterability of the parts installed. Each curb has a large longitudinal retroreflective strip that makes it visible day and night.
Drainage system.
Rainwater or excess cleaning water does not accumulate on the surface of platforms built with Vectorial® system parts because it drains onto the road.
Folding ramps.
Ramps to the sidewalk allow rainwater to flow freely underneath them. They can be raised to remove the dirt that accumulates under them so the water can flow without obstruction.
Road ramp.
The Vectorial® system’s modular road ramp connects the platform with the road to guarantee bike and pedestrian access. It can be configured with different widths, has its own drainage system, and the slope conforms with accessibility regulations.
Recycled and recyclable materials
The way we work is in line with the circular economy and we focus on the resource cycle following a model based on reusing, repairing, remanufacturing and recovering existing materials and products, as opposed to using virgin materials. We manufacture all our products with recycled and recyclable materials.
Vectorial® | Blend.
The modules of the Vectorial® system are made from various mixtures of industrial and post-consumer plastic waste, mainly PVC from the remains of banners, hoses, electrical cable sheathing, out-of-standard batches, etc.
