Among the potentialmeasures to speed up the bus service, the introduction of the Autonomous Driving ModularBus, able to adjust the transport unit by coupling or decoupled pods, will represent a newparadigm in the provision of service. This concept is able to maintain high stable cruisingspeeds to the transport unit, decoupling only one pod with passengers that may alight at thenext stop. This paper analyze the potentialities of this concept in terms of user travel timesand operationg cost. This work also features the formulation and analytical models tocalculate the performance and oeprational variables, implementing them into two existingbus lines in Barcelona.
