TRB’s Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Report 151: A Guide for Implementing Bus on Shoulder (BOS) Systems provides guidelines for the planning, design, and implementation of BOS operations along urban freeways and major arterials.
The project that developed TCRP Report 151 also produced a PowerPoint presentation that describes the process that was used to develop the report.
