TLDR
A four quadrant approach is used to summarize various public transport reliability measures including the factors responsible for causing variability in the travel time using both Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) data and stated preference data to measure reliability.Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to review various public transport reliability measures including the factors responsible for causing variability in the travel time. A four quadrant approach is used to summarize various reliability measures. These indicators use both Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) data and the stated preference data to measure reliability. Further various supply and demand side factors causing uncertainties in travel time are listed and discussed. In the end a brief case study on two routes of Bus Rapid Transit System(BRTS) of Ahmedabad is reported to apply and test the reviewed travel time measures on the ITS data.read more

A Proposed Framework for Identification of Indicators to Model High-Frequency Cities
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a framework for the identification and analysis of indicators to model and better understand the concept of a high-frequency city in a systematic manner, and a framework was proposed to assess frequency at both the intra-city and inter-city levels.

Analyzing Demand with Respect to Offer of Mobility
TL;DR: DORAM allows to perform the analysis of alternative scenarios, as what-if analyses, when the transport service offer and the mobility demand changed in the scenario, adopting a fast-computation strategy to compare scenarios with the aim of detecting/identifying motivations of crowded conditions on stops and on the vehicles.

Does Transit Service Reliability Influence Ridership?
TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of road network, demographic, socioeconomic, and land use characteristics on transit service reliability was analyzed at a bus stop level, and Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to understand the association between road network and demographic and socioeconomic characteristics.

The valuation of reliability for personal travel
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review progress made towards a general theory of the traveller's valuation of travel time reliability, and give some indication of recent empirical research in this area, bringing together a large number of theoretical and empirical results, many of which are only partly in the public domain.
