Increased urbanisation has led to significant challenges for public transport operators. Inconsistent demand leads to peaks in passenger activity on the network. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced a need for social distancing as well, limiting the desired capacity of vehicles. To combat this, intelligent real-time and data-driven...

The discussion involving BRT and LRT is well alive among policymakers, who often rely on personal preferences or, as it is called in literature, on “blind commitment” towards one system or the other for their decision-making. The reason for choosing a system according to personal taste is also caused by the unknown preferences that public...

Over the past decade, the development of ICT and online platforms has provided the infrastructure for new ways of sharing on a scale never seen before which are causing a shift from ownership to access-based- consumption. This trend offers promising prospects for the case of mobility but the true magnitude of impact that the...

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is a concept that integrates public transport and other access based mobility services into one easy to use platform. For users this means that they no longer have to do large investments while still having access to transport. They can perform door-to-door journeys in a way that suits their needs at a specific time....

The introduction and obligation of tendering PT (concessions) in Europe has led to more focus on cost-efficiency and contracts. An additional effect in regional PT is the increase of undesirable boundaries between train and bus, e.g. in the form of non-aligned tariffs and bad interchange possibilities. The goal of a multimodal concession is to...

The Amsterdam Metropolitan area, and especially Amsterdam city, attracts large amounts of people due to the diverse economy opportunities, cultural and recreational activities, and the strong connection of the region by public transport and road network. The need for space, resources, and mobility are increasing and will keep increasing due to...

Overcrowded bicycle parkings are becoming a problem at Dutch railway stations. This study researches the possibility of spreading travellers over multiple stations. In this two-stage study first the factors that influence station choice are researched, followed by the generation of measures that can be used to influence the station choice of...

The last mile in a public transport trip appears to be one of the main deterrents in public transport to be competitive with other modes of transport. The reason for this bad performance of the last mile can be related to the slow and inflexible character of the last mile. Where PRT systems aspire to deliver an on demand, direct service to a...

Around the world, more and more public transport operators opt for automated fare collection systems by means of smart cards. The data registered by such a system contain valuable information for transport planning. This research aims at increasing the usability of this data for the description of public transport travel demand. Travel demand is...

The project’s goal is to develop a product which will enhance the experience of travelling by public transport. In order to reach this goal use has been made of a combination of the brand driven innovation design method, the design for emotion method and the LEAN start-up method. The first phase of the process focuses mainly on the analysis of...

A research is conducted into the applicability of different Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) configurations. Based on knowledge acquired from researching a set of reference systems a BRT design model is formulated. This model is subsequently implemented into a tool, the BRT design scanner. This scanner provides the possibility to investigate, based on...

In order to obtain a modal shift from car towards public transport, the quality of a public transport journey has to be increased. The transfer is the least valued part of the journey where a traveller perceives one minute of waiting as three minutes. By improving the least valued part, the overall quality of a public transport journey increases...

Public transport is known as a sustainable transportation mode. In order to increase demand and cost effectiveness much attention is paid to increase the service quality. One of these service quality aspects is the travel time reliability of a public transport service. However, the monetization of travel time reliability is still a topic of...

Passenger loss is inextricably connected with network optimization, since longer access times and distances will hypothetically result in a partial passenger loss, because longer access distances confine the willingness to bridge those distances. Optimizing stopping distances based on different passenger groups that are differentiated towards...

Public transport use and spatial developments have always influenced each other. During the last decade governments are more and more trying to get grip onto this process via different types of policy tools. One of these tools is Transit Oriented Development (TOD). In TOD the use of existing and new public transport network is stimulated by...

Yap, M.D. (author)
Disturbances in public transport are an important issue for passengers, public transport operators and infrastructure managers. After the occurrence of large disturbances, there is often a strong call from passengers and society to make the public transport network less vulnerable – and therefore more robust – against these types of events. In...
