Rethinking the wait model at transit stops
In an urban transit system where the service is perceived in terms of frequency of the different lines, the mathematical description of the route choice strategy is not trivial, because the wait at the stop, as pointed out in many studies in the last 30 years, is a complex phenomenon which requires a specific analysis (e.g. Chriqui and Robillard [1975], Marguier [1981], Gendreau [1984], Spiess ...
متن کاملModels of Bus Queueing at Curbside Stops
We consider curbside bus stops of the kind that serve multiple bus routes, and that are isolated from the effects of traffic signals and other stops. A Markov chain embedded in the bus queueing process is used to develop steady-state queueing models for two special cases of this stop type. The models estimate the maximum rate that buses can arrive to, and be served by the stop, and still satisf...
متن کاملPassenger Wait Time Perceptions at Bus Stops: Empirical Results and Impact on Evaluating Real- Time Bus Arrival Information
This study quantifies the relationship between perceived and actual waiting times experienced by passengers awaiting the arrival of a bus at a bus stop. Understanding such a relationship would be useful in quantifying the value of providing realtime information to passengers on the time until the next bus is expected to arrive at a bus stop. Data on perceived and actual passenger waiting times,...
متن کاملTransit Stops and Stations: Transit Managers’ Perspectives on Evaluating Performance Transit Stops and Stations: Transit Managers’ Perspectives on Evaluating Performance
Passengers, transit managers, adjacent businesses and residents, and local governments all can have strong, and sometimes conflicting, ideas about what makes a good transit stop or station. This paper examines stops and stations from the transit agency’s perspective; transit managers must consider both the logistical and political factors inherent to transit operations as well as the perspectiv...
متن کاملRoute Choice on Transit Networks with Online Information at Stops
Passengers on a transit network with common lines are often faced with the problem of choosing between either to board the arriving bus or to wait for a faster one. Many assignment models are based on the classical assumption that at a given stop passengers board the first arriving carrier of a certain subset of the available lines, often referred to as the attractive set. In this case, it has ...
