This section describes the basic system wide operating and maintenance philosophies and methodologies set forth for the Metro Rail Projects, which shall be used by designer in preparation of an Operations and Maintenance Plan. An initial Operations and Maintenance Plan (OMP) is developed during the environmental phase and is based on ridership forecasts produced during this early planning phase of a project. From this initial Operations and Maintenance plan, headways are established that are to be evaluated by a rail operations simulation upon which design and operating headways can be established to confirm operational goals for light and heavy rail systems. The Operations and Maintenance Plan shall be developed in order to design effective, efficient and responsive transit system. The operations criteria and requirements established herein represent Metro’s Rail Operating Requirements / Criteria applicable to all rail projects and form the basis for the project-specific operational design decisions. They shall be utilized by designer during preparation of Operations and Maintenance Plan. Any proposed deviation to Design Criteria cited herein shall be approved by Metro, as represented by the Change Control Board, consisting of management responsible for project construction, engineering and management, as well as daily rail operations, planning, systems and vehicle maintenance with appropriate technical expertise and understanding.

  • Headway Adherence. Detection and Reduction of the Bus Bunching Effect
    HEADWAY ADHERENCE. DETECTION AND REDUCTION OF THE BUS BUNCHING EFFECT Josep Mension Camps Director Central Services and Deputy Chief Officer of Bus Network. Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB). Miquel Estrada Romeu Associate Professor. Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya- BarcelonaTECH. 1. INTRODUCTION Transit systems should provide a good performance to compete against the wide usage of cars in metropolitan areas. The level of service of these systems relies on a proper temporal and spatial coverage provision (high frequencies, low stop spacings) as well as significant regularity and comfort. In this way, bus systems in densely populated cities usually operate at short headways (10 minutes or less). However, in these busy routes, any delay suffered by a single bus is propagated to the whole bus fleet. This fact causes vehicle bunching and unstable time-headways. In real bus lines, we usually see that two or more vehicles arrive together or in close succession, followed by a long gap between them. There are many sources of potential external disruptions in the service of one bus: illegal parking in the bus lane, failure in the doors opening system, traffic jams, etc. However, some intrinsic characteristics of transit systems and traffic management may also induce delays at specific vehicles such as traffic signal coordination and irregular passenger arrivals at stops. These facts make the bus motion unstable. Therefore, bus bunching is a common problem in the real operation of buses all over the world that must be addressed. The crucial issue is that bus bunching has a great impact on both users and agency cost. From a passenger perspective, the bus bunching phenomena increases the travel time of passengers (riding and waiting time) and worsens the vehicle occupancy.

  • Making Headway, Capital Investments to Keep Transit Moving
    CAPITAL INVESTMENT PLAN Making Headway Capital Investments to Keep Transit Moving 2019–2033 headway (/ˈhed wā/) noun 1. forward movement or progress, especially when the way is difficult. 2. the average interval between trains, streetcars, or buses. The shorter the headway, the more passengers carried per hour. Making Headway — Capital Investments to Keep Transit Moving January 2019 From the Chief Executive Officer In January 2018, the TTC published a new Corporate Plan that clearly laid out our priorities for the next five years. At the top of the list was transforming for financial sustainability. “Fiscal sustainability,” we said, “depends on our ability to fund what the TTC is being asked to deliver over the long term.” We committed to providing better budget information for improved long-term decision-making. Over the past 12 months, we have undertaken a massive, multi-department review of all of our assets. The result is this Capital Investment Plan. Toronto’s transit system is hailed as among the most multi- modal systems in the world, with seamless integration between buses, streetcars, Wheel-Trans and the subway. The TTC’s interdependent network of fleet, track, power, maintenance and other infrastructure moves more than half a billion people annually. Funding for critical maintenance and system improvements is necessary. Projects that have been approved are still awaiting funding. Line 2 Capacity Enhancement is unfunded. Buses past 2021 are unfunded. The expansion of Bloor-Yonge Station, which is needed to accommodate ridership growth even before planned transit expansion, is unfunded. The TTC Way, which was introduced in our Corporate Plan, establishes clear guidelines for how we at the TTC work with each other, with customers and with our partners, including our funding partners.

  • Chapter 9- the Circulation Plan (PDF)
    CHAPTER 9- THE CIRCULATION PLAN The Circulation Plan in Middletown is coordinated with the State's system of expressways, including Interstate Route 91 about to be completed, Route 9 in the Connecticut valley and the future Route 6A across the State. Middletown needs a thoroughfare between Route I-91 near Country Club Road and the center. The Circulation Plan is also coordinated with the development of downtown Middletown, already described, including the circumferential "ring road" around the center. Regional Expressways The plan which the State Highway Department has made for a state-wide expressway system includes three such routes which traverse Middletown. Interstate Route 91 is under construction from New Haven northward and crosses the western part of the City. Meeting the Connecticut Turnpike at New Haven, this will be the principal approach to Middletown from the southwest, including metropolitan New York. This is scheduled to be completed by the end of 1965. Route 9 is the principal north-south artery of the Connecticut Valley. It passes through Middletown center as an at-grade boulevard along the riverfront mixing local and through traffic. South of the center, it has been improved as a four-lane expressway to a point near the Haddam town line. Its rebuilding as an expressway to the Connecticut Turnpike at Old Saybrook will be undertaken shortly. North of Middletown Route 9 will soon be relocated and rebuilt as an expressway, turning westerly from its present line to join I-91 in the western part of Cromwell. Thus traffic to Middletown from Hartford and the north will start on I-91 and transfer to the new Route 9 a few miles north of the City.

  • I-82 Valley Mall Boulevard Full-Diamond Interchange Was Originally Built in 1964
    PRACTICAL DESIGN AT WORK — DESIGN I-82 – Valley Mall Boulevard – construct roundabout Background Agriculture and tourism, key industries in the Yakima Valley, increase population and drive congestion along the Interstate 82 corridor. Valley Mall Boulevard, located south of Yakima in Union Gap, connects retail and commercial development to the interstate system and provides a direct route to the Yakima Air Terminal. In 2011, the Washington State Department of Transportation improved the Valley Mall Boulevard connection to the I-82 corridor by constructing three roundabouts; a modern traffic trend, somewhat new to the northwest. Practical design solution The I-82 Valley Mall Boulevard full-diamond interchange was originally built in 1964. Minor improvements including widening ramps were complete in 1997. With three stoplights at the ramp terminal, the interchange configuration and traffic flow was not keeping up with the demands of growing retail and commercial development. Congestion at peak travel times resulted in long delays and an increased risk of collisions as traffic backed up onto the freeway. Engineers worried about safety as T-bone and rear-end collisions increased. Typical design options for the congestion and safety issues would entail costly ramps and bridges. The final design chosen embodied modern day practical design concepts. The project used three roundabouts to connect the on-ramps and off-ramps to Valley Mall the city of Union Gap, local businesses The diamond interchange had Boulevard and the adjacent local street, and the public through design and exceeded its service life and was at to improve traffic flow, reduce the risk construction. WSDOT attended city capacity.
