Measuring Bus Service Reliability: An Example of Bus Rapid Transit in Changzhou
The objective of this paper is to analyze service reliability of bus rapid transit (BRT) taking Changzhou BRT as an example. Headway irregularity, potential waiting time, equivalent waiting time, and reliability buffer time are recommended to measure service reliability of BRT. Temporal and spatial distributions and comparisons are analyzed. Findings are that passengers of Changzhou BRT need to...
متن کاملBus Rapid Transit: An Overview
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is growing in popularity throughout the world. The reasons for this phenomenon include its passenger and developer attractiveness, its high performance and quality, and its ability to be built quickly, incrementally, and economically. BRT also provides sufficient transport capacity to meet demands in many corridors, even in the largest metropolitan regions. In the United...
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...
متن کاملA Holding Strategy to Optimize the Bus Transit Service
Bus systems are unstable without considering any control. Thus, we are able to consider some control strategies to alleviate this problem. A holding control strategy is one commonly used real-time control strategy that can improve service quality. This paper develops a mathematical model for a holding control strategy. The objective of this model is to minimize the total cost related to passeng...
