A bi-directional vehicle is a vehicle that can be driven in either direction, forwards or backwards. Usually, the term refers to rail vehicles, such as trains or trams, and some airside transfer buses, that are equipped with driver's cabs at both ends. These vehicles generally have entry and exit doors on either side of the vehicle.
In transportation infrastructure, a bidirectional traffic system divides travellers into two streams of traffic that flow in opposite directions. [ 1 ] In the design and construction of tunnels, bidirectional traffic can markedly affect ventilation considerations.
Bidirectional may refer to: Bidirectional, a roadway that carries traffic moving in opposite directions Bi-directional vehicle , a tram or train or any other vehicle that can be controlled from either end and can move forward or backward with equal ease without any need to be turned around

Directionality of traffic flow by jurisdiction Countries by direction of road traffic, c. 2020 Left-hand traffic Right-hand traffic No data Left-hand traffic (LHT) and right-hand traffic (RHT) are the practices, in bidirectional traffic, of keeping to the left side or to the right side ...
The majority of dual carriageway roads now have barriers. Some are heavy concrete obstructions which can bounce a vehicle back into the path of other traffic; others are made from steel ropes mounted on moderately weak posts, where the rope cuts into the vehicle body to slow the vehicle while keeping it against the barrier until it has stopped.
The south end of Lions Gate Bridge in Vancouver, British Columbia. A reversible lane, also known as variable lane, dynamic lane, and tidal flow, is a managed lane in which traffic may travel in either direction, depending on certain conditions.
[1] [2] [3] Vehicle-to-load (V2L) and Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) are related, but the AC phase is not synchronised with the grid, so the power is only available to "off-grid" load. Plug-in electric vehicles include battery electric vehicles (BEVs), plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), and hydrogen vehicles. They share the ability to generate electricity ...
Each vehicle includes an aircraft-like fuselage [9] pressurized for atmospheric air circulation and control – and includes propulsion, guidance and control systems to operate at speeds exceeding 1000 km/h within a protected tube guideway. [3] The tubes are twinned to permit bidirectional vehicle travel. [2]
