TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a solution approach for the problem of optimising the frequency and intensity of pavement resurfacing, under steady-state conditions, where the pavement deterioration and improvement models are deterministic and follow the Markov property.

TL;DR: In this article, the maximal rates that buses can discharge from bus stops are examined and models were developed to estimate these capacities for curbside stops that are isolated from the effects of traffic signals.

TL;DR: In this article, an idealized system that delivers its users to a common destination by requiring each to transfer from a feeder to a trunk-line vehicle is considered, and it is shown that coordination can be Pareto improving, meaning that operator and user costs both diminish.

TL;DR: An algorithm is presented for transit passenger OD estimation that estimates the passenger alighting probabilities at every stop on the route and these are more apt to remain fixed across transit trips, when coupled with projected boarding counts, to better characterize OD patterns on the routes.

TL;DR: In this article, the coordination of vehicle schedules in a public transit system is investigated and it is shown that when feeder vehicles are dispatched in coordination with this exogenous trunk-line schedule, the reduction in user cost often outweighs the added cost to feeder operation.
