Transit network optimization can effectively improve transit efficiency, traffic conditions, and reduce the pollution of environment. In order to better meet travel demands passengers, factors influencing passengers’ satisfaction with a customized bus are fully analyzed. Taking minimum operating cost enterprise as objective considering random time constraints routes optimized. The K-means clust...

Multimodal transportation (MMT) refers to a system that utilizes various means of transfer people & goods from one place another. Transit operations are measured as the maximum number passengers can be carried past fixed route, in given period. Investing and using multiple modes does not only bring efficiencies but also goes long way reduce time delay, well overall cost transportation. This...

Analysis of detailed statistics shows remarkable fluctuations in the volume and composition voyages on Northern Sea Route (NSR) along northern coast Russia since international use began 2010. There has been strong growth destination shipping between Arctic ports outside region, but transit Pacific Atlantic not experienced many had anticipated. Explanations are found market conditions as well ma...

Route accessibility is essential infrastructure, facilitating more convenient transit for individuals. Nonetheless, the seasonal monsoon can lead to flooding and impair of local transportation, especially in hilly-lowland areas. This study aims investigate an alternative route access safe travel from Kota Marudu Kinabalu, Sabah, during floods with GIS path analysis MCDA method. The slope, rainf...

The flexible-route bus system is a type of dynamic public transit service. Routes and timetables are not fixed during the operation process, driving routes planned according to passengers’ reservation needs. This study develops model that considers inter-regional travel demands. optimal network layout determined by minimizing an objective function comprises operator user costs. Then, two cases ...

INTRODUCTION The built environment correlates of physical activity are documented in high-income countries but have yet to be studied among Mexican adults. Our objectives were to assess the associations between characteristics of the built environment and physical activity among adults in Cuernavaca, Mexico, and to examine potential moderation by perceived park and neighborhood safety. METHOD...

The transit service in a city should be the most efficient, least polluting, accessible, and sustainable means of transportation for its citizens. However, serious shortcomings have been detected, mainly medium-sized cities developing countries. These are related to lack user information, insecurity, low availability, repeated stops inappropriate and/or unauthorized places. Some these contribut...

Nowadays, traffic management policy in metropolitans is focused on increasing the share of public transit. The limitation of supply and slowing growth of road infrastructures have provided congestion for users who choose personal cars. Therefore, applying demand management policies which decrease the utility of personal cars and increase the tendency to public transit can be very important. Con...

This research presents a method of comparing fixed-route transportation systems and demand-responsive feeder transit systems using passenger survey data, published transit schedules, and optimal routing techniques. Demand-responsive transportation can be utilized to improve transit service levels in low demand areas. Since cities can vary significantly in demand across the region and time of da...
