Bus Priority on Roads Carrying Heterogeneous Traffic: a Study using Computer Simulation
The desirable goal in passenger transportation is moving more people in fewer vehicles. This goal, in respect of road transport, can be attained by encouraging public transport modes like buses by assigning priority. This paper is concerned with application of micro simulation technique to study the impact of provision of reserved bus lanes on the flow of highly heterogeneous traffic on urban r...
متن کاملMicro-simulation Study of Bus Priority on Roads Carrying Highly Heterogeneous Traffic
The desirable goal in passenger transportation is moving more people in fewer vehicles. This goal, in respect of road transport, can be attained by encouraging public transport modes like buses by assigning priority. This paper is concerned with the conceptual framework of a micro simulation model of highly heterogeneous traffic flow and application of the model to study the impact of exclusive...
متن کاملDual Bus MAN's with Multiple-Priority Traffic
AbsfructThe IEEE 802.6 standard for metropolitan area networks does not provide multiple priority traffic for connectionless data services. A priority mechanism that was considered in earlier versions of the standard showed to be not effective. As of now, there exists no protocol for multiple access dual bus networks that is able to implement preemptive priorities and, at the same time, can sat...
متن کاملUsing Gps for Bus Priority in London: Traffic Signals Close to Bus Stops
London's bus network is one of the largest and most comprehensive urban transport systems in the world. The contribution of buses is recognised by implementing a series of initiatives including bus priority at traffic signals. London has a long history of the implementation of bus priority at traffic signals. It has kept pace with the development of new technologies by updating its bus priority...
متن کاملBus Lanes with Intermittent Priority: Screening Formulae and an Evaluation
This paper evaluates strategies for operating buses on signal-controlled arterials using special lanes that are made intermittently available to general traffic. The advantage of special bus lanes, intermittent or dedicated, is that they free buses from traffic interference; the disadvantage is that they disrupt traffic. We find that intermittent lanes, unlike dedicated ones, do not significant...
