Effects of rural bus stops on travel time and reliability [PDF]
Public Transport, 2021 AbstractDue to relatively low patronage levels, rural bus stops are sometimes questioned in order to improve travel time and reliability on regional bus services. Previous research into stop spacing has focused on urban areas, which means that there is a lack of knowledge regarding the effects of bus stops in regional networks, with longer distances ...

Using Bus Probe Data for Analysis of Travel Time Variability [PDF]
Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2009 The rapid progress of information technology (IT) may provide us with new insights into understanding traffic phenomena, and could help mitigate traffic problems. One of the key applications of IT to traffic and transport analysis is the identification of the location of moving objects using the Global Positioning System (GPS).

Optimization Scheme of Fine Toll and Bus Departure Quantity for Bottleneck Congestion Management
Complexity, 2021 This paper chooses car travel and bus travel as the research objects, establishes a dual-mode equilibrium model based on the bottleneck model, and compares the travel characteristics of the no-toll and fine-toll schemes. We find that the fine-toll scheme
