How to Improve High-frequency Bus Service Reliability through Scheduling
This paper outlines a scheduling process for improving high-frequency bus service reliability based on a model which uses Automatic Vehicle Location and Automatic Passenger Count data. Developing a schedule for high-frequency bus routes involves balancing the costs to the passengers and the cost to the transit agency. Passengers are interested in short travel times and short, reliable waiting t...
متن کاملHow to Improve Bus Service
Bus schedules cannot be easily maintained on busy lines with short headways: Experience shows that buses offering this type of service usually arrive irregularly at their stops, often in bunches. Although transit agencies build slack into their schedules to alleviate this problem, their attempts often fail because practical amounts of slack cannot prevent large localized disruptions from spread...
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 کاملProposing an approach to calculate headway intervals to improve bus fleet scheduling using a data mining algorithm
The growth of AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) systems leads to huge amount of data about different parts of bus fleet (buses, stations, passenger, etc.) which is very useful to improve bus fleet efficiency. In addition, by processing fleet and passengers’ historical data it is possible to detect passenger’s behavioral patterns in different parts of the day and to use it in order to improve fle...
متن کاملBus transit service reliability: Understanding the impacts of overlapping bus service on headway delays and determinants of bus bunching
To retain and attract new riders, transit agencies are frequently in search for ways to improve system reliability. Transit agencies typically operate several routes that partially or fully overlay (or overlap) one another in order to offer a better service coverage to reach various destinations. While previous research has focused on understanding the general factors that impact headway adhere...
