Predicting Bus Arrivals Using One Bus Away Real-Time Data
6 Providing real-time bus arrival times can enhance the experience of riders using 7 public transit, but errors in the predictions can cause a decrease in ridership. 8 Using data collected from a local transit agency, we created models to predict 9 arrival times using K-Nearest Neighbors and Kernel Regression and seven sets 10 of features. The best feature set had a RMSE of 34 seconds, a large ...

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 کاملEstimating Energy Savings from Bus Improvement Options
The potential to achieve significant energy savings in the road transport sector can be a powerful driver to promote bus transport, especially bus rapid transit (BRT) development. This research introduces a spreadsheet tool for making realistic estimates of energy savings due to increased use of buses, with an explicit inclusion of the effect of congestion on traffic flow and fuel consumption. ...
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 کاملWorking Paper Study of Passenger-Bus-Traffic Interactions on Bus Stop Operations
Buses are the unsung heroes of public transport in modern cities around the world in high, medium and low income countries. However, the bus system is usually cobbled by poor design which has resulted from poor understanding of how a busThis paper examines the impacts of the interactions between buses, passengers and traffic on bus operations, especially in relation to delays and capacity at bu...
