A self-coördinating bus route to resist bus bunching [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2012
The primary challenge for an urban bus system is to maintain constant headways between successive buses. Most bus systems try to achieve this by adherence to a schedule; but this is undermined by the tendency of headways to collapse, so that buses travel in bunches. To counter this, we propose a new method of coordinating buses. Our method abandons the

Integrating Conventional Headway Control with Reinforcement Learning to Avoid Bus Bunching [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv.org, 2022
Bus bunching is a natural-occurring phenomenon that undermines the efficiency and stability of the public transportation system. The mainstream solutions control the bus to intentionally stay longer at certain stations.

Improving service regularity for high-frequency bus services with rescheduling and bus holding

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2021
In high-frequency bus services, maintaining the service regularity is a critical issue. The service regularity is directly related to the excessive waiting times (EWT) of passengers at bus stops.

Mixed Scheduling Strategy for High Frequency Bus Routes With Common Stops

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Bus routes overlapping would lead to more than one bus entering the stop simultaneously, which may trigger bus bunching. Focusing on high frequency routes with common stops, this paper proposes a mixed scheduling method combining the all-stop service and

Analysis of Spatial-Temporal Characteristics of Operations in Public Transport Networks Based on Multisource Data

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, 2021
Operational efficiency and stability are two critical aspects to measure bus systems. Influenced by many stochastic factors, buses always suffer from delay and bunching.

Finding Causes of Irregular Headways Integrating Data Mining and AHP

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2015
Irregular headways could reduce the public transit service level heavily. Finding out the exact causes of irregular headways will greatly help to develop efficient strategies aiming to improve transit service quality.

A Decision Tree Ensemble Model for Predicting Bus Bunching

open access: yesThe Computer Journal, 2021
Abstract Travel delays and bus overcrowding are some of the daily dissatisfactions of public transportation users. These problems may be caused by bus bunching, an event that occurs when two or more buses are running the same route together, i.e. out of schedule.
