One of the most common motivations for public transport investments is to reduce
congestion and increase capacity. Public transport congestion leads to crowding discomfort …

This paper deals with the train scheduling problem for metro networks taking into account
time-dependent passenger origin–destination demands and train speed profiles. The aim is …

The prevention of crowding inside buses, trams and trains is an important component of on-
board passenger comfort and is central to the provision of good public transport services. In …

The bus service time at bus stop areas occupies a large proportion of the total on-road bus
operational time. Curbside bus stops are very common in urban transit systems, and the …

Public transport is the key component in sustainable transportation. In China, large
subsidies are provided by the national and local governments to encourage the use of …

In many European metropolitan areas, the urban transit system is a mixture of schedule-and
frequency-based services. This study proposes an integrated transit frequency and schedule …

Abstract We propose a Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) model in order to
determine optimal line frequencies and capacities in dense railway rapid transit (RRT) …

The present study investigates the determinants of vehicle dwell time at stations in urban
light rail networks. Using data collected from an on-board automatic passenger counting …

The primary objective of this study was to develop a quantitative approach to estimate bus
dwell time and time lost serving stop, which included acceleration and deceleration time …

This study aims to develop a weibit-based stochastic transit assignment model for situations
in which passengers' travel choice strategies are stochastic. The weibit choice model, which …
