Texto completo da fonteTransport i tätbefolkade områden blir alltmer problematiskt. Trängsel, luftföroreningar, olycksrelaterade dödsfall och tid bortslösad i trafiken är bara några av de typiska problemen som medföljer modern stadstrafik. Personlig transporter förväntas öka med 63% totalt, där biltrafiken förväntas öka med 67% och järnvägstrafiken - med 80% under perioden från 2006 till 2050. Om den typen av dynamik fortsätter, är det omöjligt att nå de i dagsläget satta hållbarhetsmålen. Detta skapar ett behov av att införa hållbara kollektivtrafiklösningar. Att definiera hållbarhet inom kollektivtrafiksammanhanget med hänsyn till fallspecifika aspekter som påverkar definitionen är ett viktigt steg i denna process. Kvantifiering och användning av beräkningsverktyg för att göra hållbarhetsbedömningar är viktiga för att diskutera ämnet i konkretiserade termer. Transportsektorn involverar en mängd aktörer som var och en har sina egna ansvarsområden. Eftersom kollektivtrafiksystem i slutändan definieras av samtliga aktörernas kollektiva insats, är det upp till varje aktör att engagera sig i processen på deras motsvarande ansvarsnivå. Samhällsekonomiska kriterier är en viktig del av hållbarhetskonsekvensbeskrivning, eftersom det sätter tekniska transportrelaterade beräkningar i ett bredare sammanhang som sträcker sig utöver transportsektorn. Detta är en kvalitativ tillämpad studie av Scanias arbete inom utveckling av beräkningsmodeller som ska underlätta att föra dialogen genom att tillhandahålla kvantitativa bevis i ett tidigt skede i försäljningsprocessen av kollektivtrafiklösningar. I denna rapport, är metodiken för hållbarhetskonsekvensbeskrivning, trafikplanering och samhällskonomiska beräkningar studerad och tillämpad på fallet Scania, där ett helhetsberäkningsverktyg har utvecklats för företaget. Bus Rapid Transit-system har visat sig vara effektiva och hållbara lösningar för kollektivtrafiken i flera regioner. Fordonsparken är en viktig komponent i BRT-systemet, vilket är anledningen till att beräkningsverktyg för analys av hållbarhetseffekterna av BRT-system har hög strategisk betydelse för Scania. Genom att uttrycka fördelarna med hållbar kollektivtrafik i kvantifierade termer kommer företaget att kunna få ytterligare marknadsandelar och samtidigt främja hållbar storstadskollektivtrafik.

In this research, we present an approach to measure the performance of Urban Transit Networks, specifically, bus routes that comprise the network. We propose a math programming model that evaluates the efficiencies of bus routes taking into consideration, the service providers, the users and the societal perspectives. This model is based on Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) methodology and derives from Network Theory, Network Modeling in DEA, Goal Programming & Goal-DEA and 'Environmental' Variables.
This approach enables the decision maker to determine the performance of its units of operations ('bus routes' in our case), optimally allocate scarce resources and achieve target levels for 'externality' variables for these bus routes and for the whole network. We further recommend modifications to the model, for adaptation to other modes of transportation as well as extend its applicability to other applications/scenarios.

Texto completo da fonteThis dissertation is a model for management of urban public bus fleet operation control, aimed at monitoring (and intervention when necessary) so that the buses monitored meet the pre-determined schedule by the time-grid, thus avoiding undesirable situations such as delays or congestion in the stations of embarkation and disembarkation. The proposed operational management model and the interventions to be carried out in the fleet are possible considering the Bus Rapid Transit system that has segregated roads for the movement of buses. The goal is to propose interventions in the fleet (actions will be sent directly to the driver, like - change the bus velocity), and analyze the results in order to help reduce two major problems in urban public transport: (1) non compliance with the schedules and (2) congestion at stations. These two problems create chain reactions that end up affecting the regularity of other vehicles who share the same track and stations. Public or private urban bus institutes can benefit by using a good system of monitoring and control of the fleet, for example: more security and predictability in schedules, better match between demand and supply of the service, fleet management through the reports of punctuality and deviation, among others. Moreover, the improvement of service quality has as consequence the increase in the number of users of transport, due to availability of a more attractive, safe and efficient bus service. The methodology presented here consists of a model for fleet tracking (operation control) and tracing of unconformities buses based on time-grid and on an algorithm of decision-making that aims to correct non-conformities identified. In an attempt to solve (or reduce) the problems that may arise during the movement of buses, algorithms (heuristic) decision is used in simulations of adverse situations. In these simulations can be performed comparing the situations \"without\" and \"with\" the interventions proposed by the decision algorithm. A geographic information system is used for data manipulation and presentation of them. Using linear representation is possible to compare the buses situations with and without interventions. Charts and tables complement the presentation of results, where it is possible to identify and realize the advantage in monitoring and intervention in the fleet (fidelity to the time-grid improvement with the simulated situations/interventions).

Texto completo da fonteThe role of transportation to urban dwellers cannot be overemphasised. Transportation enables employment, education, health services and leisure. Indeed, it ensures proper “urban insertion” (Wane, 2001, p.1). However, owing to high levels of motorization, in recent times, inadequate traffic management strategies, as well as inadequate land use and transportation planning, traffic congestion is not uncommon in cities all over the world. The economic, social, environmental and safety costs of traffic congestion are numerous and have gained much attention in the existing literature. This study proceeds with the aim of identifying the causes and the extent to which traffic congestion in the Ghanaian capital city of Accra, conspired with other factors to collapse a pilot Bus Rapid Transit System which was introduced to curb traffic congestion in the city once and for all.
With the use of the triangulation approach, research tools belonging to both the quantitative and qualitative methods of doing research, such the GIS-based techniques; five key informant in-depth interviews; three semi-structured interviews; a focus group discussion and participatory observation, in addition to using the Time-Geographic framework, the Structuration and General Systems theories respectively as interpretative guides, this study made interesting findings.
Improper land use practises, poor siting of terminals and transit points regardless of planning and architectural principles, activities of the informal economy and the woefully inadequate transport infrastructure were identified as the factors that cause traffic congestion on the Kimbu-Adenta highway on which the pilot BRTS operated. While traffic congestion made it impossible to operate scheduled bus services and increased the operational costs of the pilot project, other factors such as unhealthy competition among transport operators in Accra, the absence of a supporting legislative instrument, internal human lapses and the lack of public education were also identified as having contributed to the demise of the pilot BRTS.
Proposals to reduce traffic congestion such as improving transport infrastructure, congestion pricing, enhancing accidents management mechanisms and the implementation of the comprehensive Urban Transport Project (UTP) would not only mitigate traffic congestion but will improve the overall performance of public transportation provision in the city and ensure the success of a future BRTS in Ghana.

BRT is a new type of bus transit with high speed and capacity. With its advantages and benefits, BRT is getting popular in the world, including China. Since BRT and urban rail transit (URT) are both rapid public transports, the comparisons between the two will be inevitable. Generally speaking, BRT could theoretically reach the speed and capacity of light rail, but there is still a gap in abilities between BRT and metro. Though for construction investment, BRT is much lower-cost than the same-length metro, if considering the land value and exclusive effects altogether, the total cost of a BRT system could increase faster with the raise in passenger numbers. Therefore, depending on different development stages, cities should choose the right mode with highest efficiency as the dominant public transit. Sometimes, both of the systems should work in corporation for the best effectiveness. Though there are competition and substitution between BRT and URT, compatibility and complementarity also exist. The integration between the two will bring us a new understanding on the developments of the urban transit system. For integration of BRT and URT, thoughtful network planning is the first step. Second, the service quality and efficiency of transfers between the systems should be emphasized. Also important, a cooperative management will be necessary. At the same time, land development opportunities should be considered with this integration trend.

Bus Rapid Transit System was first implemented in South America and its successful experience had been learned by cities around the world. The BRT systems have been tremendously grown in the last decade. From 1992 to 2001, only 23 cities had implemented new BRT systems or busways while 123 cities have implemented BRT systems since 2002. Today, more than 168 cities around the world have implemented 4,400 kilometers of BRT which carry over 30 million daily passenger trips. However, there were few researches on the evaluation of service quality for BRT systems. This paper aims to develop a method for accessing the service quality of BRT system. First, delay has been selected as the SQ indicator based on review of previous researches. Then, the data and influences of important factors on delay are generated by the simulation of Taichung BRT system. Regression analysis is then applied to develop the mathematical model and identify the relationship of delay and other important factors. Last, the study proposes the classification model for SQ accordingly. It is expected that the results of this paper could help of conducting SQ assessment and formulating improvement strategies for the existing BRT systems as well as conducting planning and design of new BRT systems.

When transportation developments advanced from highway transportation to railway transportation, it is a big challenge to integrate two of them to one. To find a transit system which can complementary both of them and make it work perfectly is also a big challenge. The density of routes and urban developments are indivisible, take balance between two of them and also undamaged environments are especially important. Limited resources caused us to use it more efficiently. It is also an important question by using modern transit systems to solve the Last one mile question, and then enhance people by using public transportation systems. This study is trying to solve these questions by using three different connection systems: fixed point and trips bus transit system, demand responsive transit system, taxi-pooling transit system, and discusses four different types of situations based on time and space limits. At last find the optimized selection of these different situations on the basis of lowest prices, wish to reach a win-win prospects of operators and users.

This research investigates how algorithms for the visualization of schematic maps can be availed in mobile web devices context in order to empower the efficiency in transmitting information of bus transit maps. A genetic algorithm for path octilinear schematization technique has been used and tested to create the schematic data. Location-based and interactivity functionalities were embedded to the resulting digital maps in order to create personalized maps to meet specific user needs. A prototype of a web application and real transit data of the city of Castellón in Spain was used to test the methodology. The results have shown that real time schematizations open possibilities concerning usability that add extra value to schematic transit maps. Additionally, suggested improvements have been made to the genetic algorithm and performance tests show that genetic algorithms are adequate, in terms of efficiency, to sketch bus transit maps automatically.

This study focuses on the evaluation of intelligent transport systems making use of the BRT-Rea-vaya in Johannesburg as a case study. This study was motivated by the observation that few studies have been conducted in the study area that tackle explicitly intelligent transport systems evaluation. Intelligent transport systems can assist in improving private and public transportation systems and operations performance. In the public sector where various modes of transport such as the taxi, metro bus, metro rail, Gautrain and the BRT Rea-vaya operates, intelligent transport systems present opportunities for improving Level of Service (LOS) delivery. In Johannesburg, the BRT Rea vaya system was adopted by the Johannesburg metropolitan municipality to provide a safe, reliable, efficient and accessible public transport system. The BRT Rea vaya system is aimed at providing a better public transport, operating systems and service. For the BRT Rea vaya systems to achieve its primary goals and objectives, an intelligent transport system was incorporated to better manage the BRT Rea-vaya systems operations and activities. The study disclosed the status quo, opinions and attitudes of commuters regarding their experiences with the BRT Rea vaya public transport systems in Johannesburg. Furthermore, the study investigated whether the original objectives and aims of intelligent transport system in the BRT Rea-vaya have been meet. A central theme of the investigation is seeking to understand constraints and opportunities regarding BRT Rea-vaya intelligent transport systems‘ operations and activities in Johannesburg. The use of primary and secondary data such as questionnaires, key informant interviews, observation, journals and previous researches related to intelligent transport systems were used to acquire an in-depth understanding of the operational management of BRT Rea-vaya intelligent transport system. Collected data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) with the aid of Microsoft Excel making use of descriptive statistics, regression analysis, cross tabulation and chi-square test. This was presented using tables, graphs, maps etc. Qualitative data was analyzed making use of a thematic approach. The study resonates in the need for rapid public transport systems to provide lessons for improving and adopting intelligent transport systems. As an end product, the research provided a framework of analysis on how to integrate intelligent transport systems in the context of Bus rapid transit systems.

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system integrates efficiency of rail transport and flexibility of bus transport to achieve fast, convenient, comfortable, and low pollution goals. Due to features of comparatively low cost and short construction period, a well planned and designed BRT network can also help of implementing the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) policy, which has been recognized as an essential policy in land use planning and urban development for achieving sustainability. This study explores how various strategies and technology application for BRT to attain TOD. First, various BRT systems in representative cities are then compiled and compared based on literature review and field survey. Strategies and technologies of applying BRT for TOD planning are then proposed and evaluated. Results of this research should help of defining the role and function of BRT systems and of selecting appropriate technologies for development of BRT projects.

In order to upgrade the service quality and standard in the metropolitan area, the government usually takes mass transportation systems into consideration. Characteristics of such systems include exclusive land rights, high capacities, high frequencies, high speed, and good service standards. Smaller cities usually cannot afford such systems because of the large construction and operation costs, especially now that the government is in an unstable financial situation. The Bus Rapid Transit System has many benefits and is less expensive than the Light Trail Transit System. Therefore, the Bus Rapid Transit System is becoming more popular in the international arena by satisfying the public transportation demand. There is only one Bus Rapid Transit System in the country, which connects Chia-Yi and the High Speed Rail station in Tai-boo. However, it has encountered many hardships during the implementation process. Our research tries to determine the suitable qualifications and conditions that could serve as reference during the construction period. Our research adapts city-type and shuttle-type system, which are more specifically divided into simple-type and full-type systems. However, all basic-systems belong to the corridor system condition. Furthermore, the suitable corridor conditions and characteristics for the Bus Rapid Transit System include corridor length, development process, and traffic service conditions. Under the circumstance in which revenue is able to balance the construction and operation costs, this research tries to evaluate the Bus Rapid Transit System model in the city-type and shuttle-type condition. The relationship between the different corridor lengths and their respective revenues is analyzed. We are interested in whether the revenue is larger than or equal to the cost rate and capacity combination. Finally, our research also takes into consideration the impacts caused by subsidies. Form conclusions, we can know that with same bus rapid transit system type without subsidies condition, taking city-type for example, when the road length is 5km, the traffic capacity on 0.9, 1.0, 1.1 times of the price, the demand requires 3482、2921、2612 people individually. And when the road length ups to 15km , the demand requires 26717、17278、13414 people individually. As a result, we can see when the length is longer, the traffic demand and price is higher. In addition, with the same situation with subsidies, when the road length is 5km, the traffic capacity on 0.9, 1.0, 1.1 times of the price, the demand requires 549、519、472 people individually. From above mention, we can get conclusions that the require condition will lower the demand when there is subsidies existing. Therefore, we can say that subsidies have impacted in bus rapid transit system obviously.

The research intention of this paper is to design a bus transit system for a mass-event during a period of event. Mass-events usually refer to large-sized shows or exhibitions which gather over 10,000 people for similar purposes. We can imagine that once a mass-event is held, the traffic around the venue will easily go out of control. Traffic jams around the venue will not only influence the residents’ regular life but also decrease the pleasure of participants. In order to prevent this situation, we try to design a bus transit system to provide transit service for participants. An effective bus transit system may not only increase the convenience of participating in the event and lower the time costs for the public, but also reduce the disturbance to the residents near the venues. The bus transit system we designed includes both location concept and routing concept, so we separate our problem into two stages. In stage one, we apply a revised p-median model to find out the number and locations of transit points; in stage two, we apply a VRP model to establish routes for transit buses based on what we obtain from stage one. The optimization software CPLEX 9.0 is used to solve the two optimization models. Testing results show that our two optimization models have the ability to give optimal solutions for each case.

In recent years, due to the rapid growth of the number of cars in Taiwan, the current road capacity and parking space have already been insufficient in urban areas. Although the government has drafted many new projects of road constructions to satisfy the ever-increasing number of cars and transportation demand, the construction speed cannot meet the need of growing transportation and it can't solve the problem of traffic congestion, either. Therefore, it has become the main goal of every country in recent years to reduce the usage of personal vehicle and develop and expand the mass transit system in. To upgrade the service level and quality of the public transportation, we generally take implementing the mass transit system into consideration. However, the construction and operating cost of the mass rapid transit system is so huge that most cities are faced with financial difficulty. As a result, we consider whether we have substitute transit system, hoping to satisfy the current transportation demand under the condition of low-cost and solving the traffic problem. This research uses literature review method to collect relevant data about the light rapid transit system and the bus rapid transit system and to sort relevant evaluation indicators for each dimension. Next we use the method of university-government collaboration to discuss and modify the indicators repeatedly. Finally, by means of group decision making, we select some evaluation indicators that are appropriate and representative. Besides, we also conduct professionals and scholars investigating and apply Rough Sets Theory to learn their viewpoint and common consensus, hoping to build a decision-making database that is comprehensive, objective, representative, and adequate. It can serve as reference resources when evaluating and planning the light rapid transit system and the bus rapid transit system. Lastly, we focus on the county-controlled cities in Taipei County as our objects of filed analysis. Using the adequate evaluation mechanism that we build, we hope to find the potential routes in Taipei County in which we can implement the light rapid transit system or the bus rapid transit system.

Following the trend of Transit-Oriented Developments (TOD), the Taichung City Government implements the Bus Rapid Transit System (BRT), in which urban buses will become highly important public transport facilities in Taichung, thus effectively enhancing the quality of public transport services and attracting passengers to take public transportation. However, there must also be complete and dense bus networks with optimized transport planning around the each bus stop or bus station to attract the public to take advantage of the BRT system. As the existing bus networks do not provide complete services to the BRT stations, this study aims to increase the availability of the BRT system by adjusting the existing bus feeder routes. Most of the conventional adjustment for bus routes are based on the subjective judgment of the planner, which is incomplete without considering the demand for actual travel times.In order to understand the characteristic features of urban bus services, this study uses the e-ticketing transaction information from the Taichung City Bus Ticketing System to analyze the ticket transaction data of the entire month and explore the trip distribution among Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) using the origin-destination (OD) trip matrix for Taichung citizens. Then, the Database Management System (DBMS) and the Geographic Information System (GIS) are used to process the ticket information. As bus stops are assigned to the Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) in Taichung City, bus trips are transformed into TAZ trips, which can further help clarify the attractions in every TZA. This study compares demand partitions with existing road networks to review the unserviceable demand partitions in the road networks, clarify the adjustment rules for shuttle bus routes, and work out the adjustment principles for bus feeder routes, so that the existing routes can meet travel needs and provide transportation services for the BRT stations. Meanwhile, this study also develops adjustment principles and program proposals for the bus feeder routes.Finally, through spatial analysis in QGIS, this study searches for the bus routes nearby in unserviceable demand partitions for extension or adjustment of the diversion structure and adjusts the routes based on travel and transportation needs around the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) stations. After reviewing the differences in the routes before and after adjustment through partition availability indicators, the results show that adjustment principles can improve the availability of the BRT, thus providing references for the public transport system and implementation of public transport policies.
