Journal ArticleDOI
Planning, operation, and control of bus transport systems: A literature review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a comprehensive review of the literature on transit network planning problems and real-time control strategies suitable for bus transport systems, emphasizing recent studies as well as works not addressed in previous reviews.
Journal ArticleDOI
How much can holding and/or limiting boarding improve transit performance?
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new mathematical programming model to control vehicles operating on a transit corridor minimizing total delays, which can handle a heterogeneous fleet of vehicles with different capacities without using binary variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-Time Control of Buses in a Transit Corridor Based on Vehicle Holding and Boarding Limits
TL;DR: In this paper, a real-time mathematical programming model of buses operating on a transit corridor that incorporates vehicle-capacity constraints is proposed, where two control policies are considered: (a) vehicle holding, which is applicable at any stop, and boarding limits that constrain the number of passengers entering a vehicle even when the vehicle is at less than physical capacity, to increase operating speed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The bottleneck mechanism of a freeway diverge
TL;DR: This paper describes the behavior of multi-lane freeway traffic, upstream of an oversaturated off-ramp, based on empirical evidence from freeway I-880 (northbound) near Oakland, CA, and finds regularity of the flow-density scatter-plots and variable capacity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A behavioural comparison of route choice on metro networks: Time, transfers, crowding, topology and socio-demographics
TL;DR: A route choice model for metro networks that considers different time components as well as variables related to the transferring experience, train crowding, network topology and socio-demographic characteristics is applied to the London Underground and Santiago Metro networks to make a comparison of the decision making process of the users on both cities.
