本文介绍了马萨诸塞湾交通局于1987年在候选公交线路上实施基于时差的实时可靠性控制的操作问题和结果。该程序包括将巴士停泊在路线上的一个管制站,直至达到规定的最低班次为止。基于间隔的控制策略适用于间隔足够短的高频公交路线,以至于乘客在没有参考时刻表的情况下随机到达公交站点。它被认为适合于纠正已经发生的服务中断,或者用于防止传播和进一步的服务降级。这一努力的目标是提高旅行者所感知的服务可靠性,并允许更有效地利用运营商资源。街道监督员未能始终如一地遵循扣留指示,以及涉及点数检查员的数据收集问题阻碍了评估工作。尽管如此,看起来……
This paper presents the operational issues and results of implementing real‐time headway‐based reliability control along candidate bus routes operated by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority in 1987. The procedure involves holding buses at a control point on the route until a prescribed minimum headway is achieved. Headway‐based control strategies apply to high‐frequency transit routes where headways are sufficiently short that travelers arrive randomly at bus stops without consulting a schedule. It is considered appropriate for correcting service disruptions that have already occurred, or for preventing propagation and further service degradation. The goal of this effort is to improve service reliability as perceived by travelers, as well as to allow for more effective utilization of operator resources. Failure by street supervisors to consistently follow holding instructions and data collection problems involving point checkers hampered the evaluation effort. Nevertheless, it appears that cert...
