Cooperative design of feeder bus and bike-sharing systems [PDF]

Transportmetrica A: Transport Science
Feeder services, which provide travellers effective access from local areas to trunk-line systems, are essential, especially when the long-haul trunk routes are designed with large spacing between stations.

Feeder Bus Stop Selection within an Integrated Feeder Bus Planning Framework

ICCTP 2011, 2011
Urban rail transit systems constructed along demand-oriented corridors will supply the main travel mode to most commuters in their commute trip-chains. However, in residential areas, a long walking distance from home to stop makes travelers take a private mode. To date, the conventional approach has limitations when applied to residential areas, as the

Optimization of Feeder Bus Routes and Bus‐Stop Spacing

Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1988
Existing studies of transit network design deal separately with the problems of determining the optimal route spacing and operating headway, and that of determining the optimal stop spacing. This paper presents an analytic model for the design of an optimal feeder bus network for accessing an existing rail line, which avoids the sequential approach and

Feeder Bus Service for Commuter Rail

Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1975
A feeder bus system for a suburban community commuter rail station is designed. The paper develops a design methodology utilizing cost–effectiveness methods. A demand model for feeder bus ridership is developed with input variables – location of rail users, income of users transit fare, level of transit service, and walk time to bus route. In applying

APPLYING METAHEURISTICS TO FEEDER BUS NETWORK DESIGN PROBLEM

Asia-Pacific Journal of Operational Research, 2004
This paper proposes the design and analysis of two metaheuristics, simulated annealing (SA) and tabu search (TS), for solving the feeder bus network design problem. The results are compared to those published in the literature. A comparative study is also carried out on several test problems generated at random to evaluate the performance of these ...

Recommendation of feeder bus routes using neural network embedding-based optimization

Transportation Research, Part A: Policy and Practice, 2019
Despite the existence of vast bus and subway networks, the demand for taxis in the morning commute hours is substantial in metropolitan areas. This kind of morning traffic can be resolved by means of feeder buses connecting residential areas with popular

Evaluation of Feeder Bus in Residential Area

CICTP 2012, 2012
With continued growth in the demand for urban transportation, developing public transportation has become a major means to improving the traffic environment. In order to attract more residents to public transport, the introduction of feeder bus between large residential areas and the subway may improve the overall level of service. This paper considers

Optimization Models for Comparing Conventional and Subscription Bus Feeder Services

Transportation Science, 1991
Analytic models are developed and used in comparing fixed route conventional bus and flexible route subscription bus systems for providing feeder services to a single point (such as a transportation terminal). In the mathematical models for these two systems, vehicle size and service zone size are the optimizable decision variables, and total system ...

Baltimore Feeder Bus Planning Study

1986
One important task in the planning of a rapid transit line is the design of a feeder bus network which will transport transit riders to the new rail stations. A feeder bus system is a network of buses which collect and carry passengers to, or distribute them from, a specified place where they transfer with another transit vehicle.
