Passenger Focused Shuttle Bus Planning
Passengers experience significant inconvenience from track closures required for planned maintenance and infrastructure updates of rail networks. Generally, operators restore connectivity with shuttle busses replacing the closed link in the network. This however introduces additional transfers, while the speed of travel on busses for the replaced links is generally lower than the speed of the p...
متن کاملModelling Urban Bus Service and Passenger Reliability
Reliability of public transport systems has been considered critically important by public transport users, operators and the government. Lack of reliability in public transport results in uncertainty and delays aggravating anxiety and discomfort for the passengers and increases costs due to lost mileage and lower fleet utilisation for the operators. The government emphasises a reliable bus-ser...
متن کاملA multivariate tobit analysis of highway accident-injury-severity rates.
Relatively recent research has illustrated the potential that tobit regression has in studying factors that affect vehicle accident rates (accidents per distance traveled) on specific roadway segments. Tobit regression has been used because accident rates on specific roadway segments are continuous data that are left-censored at zero (they are censored because accidents may not be observed on a...
متن کاملRisk factors associated with bus accident severity in the United States: a generalized ordered logit model.
INTRODUCTION Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in improving bus safety operations worldwide. While in the United States buses are considered relatively safe, the number of bus accidents is far from being negligible, triggering the introduction of the Motor-coach Enhanced Safety Act of 2011. METHOD The current study investigates the underlying risk factors of bus accident severity...
متن کاملA traffic accident resulting in a degloving injury of the passenger: Case report and biomechanical theory
A degloving injury is likely to cause minimal to extensive loss of skin with variable amounts of deep tissues loss through a defence mechanism or trauma. This injury usually occurs in vehicle-pedestrian accident victims who are run over, and less commonly one in a vehicle’s passenger. In our case, three soldiers had an accident while they were travelling in a military vehicle during a reconnais...
