<description>One of the main complaints about the performance of the bus systems is the time lost at&#xd;
recurrent stops along the route, that results in a low bus speed service. Among the potential&#xd;
measures to speed up the bus service, the introduction of the Autonomous Driving Modular&#xd;
Bus, able to adjust the transport unit by coupling or decoupled pods, will represent a new&#xd;
paradigm in the provision of service. This concept is able to maintain high stable cruising&#xd;
speeds to the transport unit, decoupling only one pod with passengers that may alight at the&#xd;
next stop. This paper analyze the potentialities of this concept in terms of user travel times&#xd;
and operationg cost. This work also features the formulation and analytical models to&#xd;
calculate the performance and oeprational variables, implementing them into two existing&#xd;
bus lines in Barcelona.</description>
