TL;DR: This study optimizes the fleet size and schedules of feeder buses that connect metro and residential areas in the context of bike-sharing systems to minimize the average passenger waiting time and maximize the operator profits and can provide useful policy implications and operational recommendations for government agencies and transit authorities to regulate the bike- sharing market.

TL;DR: A predictive headway-based bus holding strategy with dynamic control point importance ranking and selection based on the cooperative game theory that satisfies allocation efficiency, individual and coalition rationality and can significantly reduce passenger waiting time and bus headway variation.

TL;DR: This research proposes an approach for measuring queue length and vehicle control delay at signalized intersections based on traffic count data collected with traffic sensors based on a computerized system called In-PerforM.

TL;DR: The experiment results demonstrate that the proposed tolling strategy performs reasonably well in improving the overall operations of HOT lane systems under various traffic conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel optimization model for electric bus charging station location, charger configuration, charging time and vehicle flow is developed considering power matching and seasonality, and the results reveal significant performance differences regarding vehicle scheduling and charging among different bus fleets in the BEB-based transit system.
