Analysis of Feeder Bus Network Design and Scheduling Problems [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
A growing concern for public transit is its inability to shift passenger’s mode from private to public transport. In order to overcome this problem, a more developed feeder bus network and matched schedules will play important roles.

A Feeder-Bus Dispatch Planning Model for Emergency Evacuation in Urban Rail Transit Corridors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The mobility of modern metropolises strongly relies on urban rail transit (URT) systems, and such a heavy dependence causes that even minor service interruptions would make the URT systems unsustainable.

Optimal Design of the Feeder-Bus Network Based on the Transfer System [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2013
This paper studied the classic feeder-bus network design problem (FBNDP), which can be described as follows: for the passenger travel demand between rail stations and bus stops on a given urban transit network, it designs the optimal feeder bus routes ...

Feeder Bus Accessibility Modeling and Evaluation [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2020
To improve first/last mile travel services between metro stations and communities, this study modeled and analyzed four kinds of feeder bus operation strategies in terms of travel time and accessibility. The analytical modeling was used to compare the travel times and the simulation experiments were used to compare the accessibilities of different ...
