A finely-detailed simulation-based approach for measuring bus bay performance
JOURNAL OF SIMULATION(2024)
摘要
Measuring the performance of the bus bay is critical to evaluate the effectiveness of the transit system. However, there are only a few examples of such work in the literature. This study proposes a novel, finely detailed simulation approach with physics-constrained vehicle trajectories. The approach can be adopted to evaluate the efficiency of multiple-berth bus bays with physical separation. The study assesses both rule-based and non-rule-based berth assignment schemes using calibrated parameters based on real-world data. Results reveal the following findings: 1) With a non-rule-based berth assignment, the overtaking-in maneuvre can significantly improve the efficiency of bus bays; 2) With a rule-based berth assignment, high-frequency routes should be allocated evenly to different berths when re-entry delay is minimal; 3) The rule-based berth assignment scheme is generally adoptable for two-berth bus bays, and 4) The deployment of additional berths may not improve the efficiency of a bus bay.
