  • The Influence of Passenger Load, Driving Cycle, Fuel Price and Different
    Transportation https://doi.org/10.1007/s11116-018-9925-0 The infuence of passenger load, driving cycle, fuel price and diferent types of buses on the cost of transport service in the BRT system in Curitiba, Brazil Dennis Dreier1 · Semida Silveira1 · Dilip Khatiwada1 · Keiko V. O. Fonseca2 · Rafael Nieweglowski3 · Renan Schepanski3 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract This study analyses the infuence of passenger load, driving cycle, fuel price and four diferent types of buses on the cost of transport service for one bus rapid transit (BRT) route in Curitiba, Brazil. First, the energy use is estimated for diferent passenger loads and driving cycles for a conventional bi-articulated bus (ConvBi), a hybrid-electric two- axle bus (HybTw), a hybrid-electric articulated bus (HybAr) and a plug-in hybrid-electric two-axle bus (PlugTw). Then, the fuel cost and uncertainty are estimated considering the fuel price trends in the past. Based on this and additional cost data, replacement scenarios for the currently operated ConvBi feet are determined using a techno-economic optimisa- tion model. The lowest fuel cost ranges for the passenger load are estimated for PlugTw amounting to (0.198–0.289) USD/km, followed by (0.255–0.315) USD/km for HybTw, (0.298–0.375) USD/km for HybAr and (0.552–0.809) USD/km for ConvBi. In contrast, C the coefcient of variation ( v ) of the combined standard uncertainty is the highest for C PlugTw ( v : 15–17%) due to stronger sensitivity to varying bus driver behaviour, whereas C it is the least for ConvBi ( v : 8%).

  • Transit Bus Automation Risks, Barriers, & Mitigations
    Transit Bus Automation Risks, Barriers, & Mitigations Introduction In 2016, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) studied risks and barriers to transit bus automation and developed mitigations as a part of the development of its Strategic Transit Automation Research (STAR) Plan. • Risks are the potential for automated technologies, once in place, to yield negative consequences or for anticipated benefits to go unrealized. • Barriers are obstacles that could prevent or significantly challenge implementation of an automation technology. Both are challenges to the potential implementation of transit bus automation that require the development of mitigation options or strategies to overcome barriers or reduce the likelihood of a risk. This factsheet summarizes the findings of this study. For more information, please see the full report, contained in the STAR Plan. Risks Four categories of risks related to transit automation were identified: Safety and Security: Automated transit buses are at risk of potential hardware and software failures or limitations, human factor errors related to over-reliance on automated assistance or decline in driver skill, and cyber-attacks, as well as potential impedance with emergency response and communications. Operations, Maintenance, & Cost Effectiveness: Transit agencies run the risk of accumulating unrealized costs from technology and transition expenditures, workforce retraining expenses, and increased labor costs due to the need for specialized skills, and technological obsolescence. Changes in service patterns or transit funding mechanisms could lead to additional costs. In addition, automated bus transit will compete against other modes that are moving toward automation. Passenger Experience: Automation could negatively affect passenger experience, or fail to deliver expected benefits. This could include degradation in service reliability, slower travel speeds, reduced access and convenience, inadequate customer service, and poor ride quality.

  • SUBJECT: On-Time Performance Improvement Action Plan FROM
    SUBJECT: On-Time Performance Improvement Action Plan FROM: Christy Wegener, Director of Planning and Communications DATE: September 28, 2015 Action Requested None – Information only Background This staff report is an update of efforts to improve On-Time Performance (OTP) Discussion In April 2015, staff presented an OTP Action Plan to the Board (Attachment 1), which included an outline of actions to immediately improve OTP. Since that time, several adjustments have been made to route schedules and alignments, as well as improvements to the software that monitors OTP. 1) Fine tuning of software: Over the past five months, staff has worked to adjust the Transit Master software so that it more accurately records OTP. This has included adjusting the stop interval distances, re-geocoding stops, and adjusting the arrival and departure zones for each stop. This process typically takes several attempts in order to achieve the desired results. This involves inputting the data into the system, exporting it to the database, pushing it out to the buses, and finally analyzing the data over several days. 2) Improve the OTP of the Route 10 and the Rapid by 3%: Adjustments have been made to the Route 10 afternoon schedule to better time with the bell at Amador High School. Additional schedule adjustments were made to early morning trips as part of the February 2015 signup. However, achieving a 3% improvement in OTP has not been attained at this point. Improvement in OTP for these routes has been negligible. 3) Identify the top two worst performing routes (Route 3 and Route 54) and make adjustments to schedules to improve respective OTP by 10%.

  • Guidance for Transit Agencies COVID-19 Pandemic Response
    March 27, 2020 Guidance for Transit Agencies COVID-19 Pandemic Response Public transportation is an essential element of our critical infrastructure and necessary to support required trips to work and healthcare for those that must travel during this unprecedented time. Public transportation agencies around the Commonwealth have been working very diligently in order to maintain operations and ensure the health and safety of their customers and employees. Some examples of the types of actions that have already been taken include: Extensive cleaning of transit vehicles and facilities Elimination of fares to reduce high-touch areas and maintain more social distancing for transit vehicle operators Use of rear-door-only boarding and spreading out passengers on the bus to ensure spacing Adding additional vehicles to higher volume routes to ensure appropriate passenger loads Skipping stops if vehicles are already at a capacity that would ensure social distancing Recommended guidance: Continue to communicate to the public that they should not take transit if they are sick. Message: if you are showing symptoms, please use an alternate mode of transportation. Transit use should be limited to essential trips only – trips to work for essential workers and to meet essential personal needs (e.g., grocery store and medical trips, but not if you are sick). Transit agencies should closely monitor employee absenteeism and direct employees not to come to work if they are sick. Transit agencies should suspend fare collection for fixed-route services, where practical, to reduce the interaction with transit operators and to limit contact with high-touch surfaces. Use rear-door boarding, where possible, to increase separation on buses.
