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

Design of limited-stop services for an urban bus corridor with capacity constraints

TL;DR: An optimization approach is presented that minimizes these costs in terms of wait time, in-vehicle travel time and operator cost in an urban bus corridor, minimizing social costs.
Journal ArticleDOI

An integrated approach for timetabling and vehicle scheduling problems to analyze the trade-off between level of service and operating costs of transit networks

TL;DR: This paper presents two integer linear programming models for the TT and VS problems, and combines them in a bi-objective integrated model that allows to analyze the trade-o between these two criteria in terms of Pareto fronts.
