A Microscopic Simulation Model to Estimate Bus Rapid Transit Station Bus Capacity
The Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) station is the interface between passengers and services. The station is crucial to line operation as it is typically the only location where buses can pass each other. Congestion may occur here when buses maneuvering into and out of the platform lane interfere with bus flow, or when a queue of buses forms upstream of the platform lane blocking the passing lane. Furt...
متن کاملBus Lanes with Intermittent Priority: Screening Formulae and an Evaluation
This paper evaluates strategies for operating buses on signal-controlled arterials using special lanes that are made intermittently available to general traffic. The advantage of special bus lanes, intermittent or dedicated, is that they free buses from traffic interference; the disadvantage is that they disrupt traffic. We find that intermittent lanes, unlike dedicated ones, do not significant...
متن کاملBus Priority of SCOOT Evaluated in a VISSIM Simulation Environment
Transit usage is based on reliable and timely service. Priority is one method for maintaining reduced transit travel times and a reliable schedule, which make transit more attractive. However, with most buses operating within the same traffic lanes as other vehicle traffic, priority policy affects the surrounding traffic. Consequently, priority is often limited to minimal green time extensions ...
متن کاملA Performance Evaluation of Bus Stop Placements near a Signalized Intersection by a Microscopic Traffic Simulation
In this paper, data from an on-site survey in Seoul, Korea and the microscopic traffic simulation are used to evaluate the performances of Bus Rapid Transit bus stops operated on different placements to their nearest traffic signals: far-side, and near-side. The influence of Bus Priority Signal Systems is also analyzed. The results reveal that a near-side bus stop performs better under the curr...
