  • When the Wheels on the Bus Stop Going Round and Round: Occupational Injuries, Illnesses, and Fatalities in Public Transportation
    February 2015 errata On May 28, 2015, a correction was made to paragraph four under “BLS survey of occupational injuries and illnesses” in this article. The sentence, as originally published, incorrectly identified the cost of security cameras on buses as $18,000 per camera rather than per bus. When the wheels on the bus stop going round and round: occupational injuries, illnesses, and fatalities in public transportation Injuries and illnesses to bus drivers endanger not only their lives but also the lives of their passengers. In 2013, approximately 5,780 transit and intercity bus drivers experienced a days-away-from-work injury or illness while on the job. This article explores occupational injuries, illnesses, and fatalities to bus drivers and urban transit workers and examines how individual transit systems are collecting and analyzing their own employee safety data. The findings reveal that mass transit systems have taken steps to protect their employees from harm on the job and that injuries and illnesses to bus drivers and urban transit workers have declined in recent years. In October 2012, a Washington (DC) Metropolitan Area Gina Dowdell Hunter Transit Authority (WMATA) bus driver was hospitalized after [email protected] a rock was thrown through an open window and hit her Gina Dowdell Hunter is an economist in the Office 1 head while she was driving.

  • 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%).

  • Attacks on Bus Operators and Passengers
    Sensitive But Unclassified Material For Official Use Only Attacks on Bus Operators and Passengers Special Report Prepared by the ST, PT and OTRB ISACs May 4, 2015 Purpose In light of recent violent incidents targeting transit operators in numerous areas around the globe, the Surface Transportation (ST), Public Transportation (PT), and Over the Road Bus (OTRB) ISACs are providing this special report for your general security awareness. The application of any standards or guidance discussed herein is strictly voluntary. The practices implemented by rail, transit, and OTRB systems may be either more or less restrictive than any recommended practices or guidance given in this document. In some cases, federal and/or state regulations govern portions of public transit systems’ operations. In those cases, government regulations should take precedence over the information or guidance provided herein. Organizations should consult their own Agency’s/Organization’s policies and guidance before taking any actions based on the information presented in these documents. This document supplements guidance and analysis already provided in daily reports produced by the ST, PT, & OTRB ISACs. Of note, the last page of this report lists references for additional information. To contact an ST and PT ISAC analyst please call 866-784-7221, or email [email protected]. To contact an OTRB ISAC analyst please call 877-847-5510, or email [email protected] 1 Sensitive But Unclassified Material For Official Use Only Introduction The security of transit system and interstate bus operators has become an increasing concern for many metropolitan areas. Some attribute the perceived rise in attacks against operators as an artifact of increased reporting, but when that element of information is factored into the analysis, there still appears to be a notable surge in violent behavior targeting transit workers; particularly against bus drivers, who may remain the most vulnerable.

  • Pennscore Operator Training Manual
    O P E R A T O R T R A I N I N G M A N U A L April, 2002 PennSCORE Operator Training Manual This manual was the brainchild of, and was originally prepared by, Dave Kilmer of Red Rose Transit Authority as part of the PennSCORE program. The manual is designed to be used by transit systems in PA for training new bus operators. It is also designed as a tool for PennSCORE graduates to use in training. This manual is generic, which means that the material contained herein can be used in many different transit environments. Information specific to a particular system, such as route descriptions, needs to be added in the appropriate sections. These sections contain notes suggesting the addition of system-specific information. Places where other training resources might be appropriate are also noted. These resources are typically videos, many of which were used in the PennSCORE program—all are available from PennTRAIN Comments and suggestions from Jim Parks and Dennis Fuge, Cambria County Transit Authority (CamTRAN), are greatly appreciated. They took the generic manual and added system-specific material for use at CamTRAN. A copy of their version is also available from PennTRAIN as an example of how this manual can be adapted for local use. Copies of this manual are available from PennTRAIN.

    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%.
