Abstract
In modern conditions of the Russian Federation in the field of traffic management, one of the priorities is to develop and improve the quality of functioning of route transport. One of the main requirements of passengers is the minimum time spent on the trip. It is problematic to meet this requirement without mutual coordination of transport processes along routes and the use of stopping points by vehicles and passengers due to their interdependence. The problem of such coordination is not only in cities, but also in regional settlements. The subject of this study is the coordination of passenger transport processes on regional bus routes that have common sections and stop-and-transfer points. The purpose of the study is to improve the organization of passenger transportation in regional directions by coordinating routes in time. In this study, we developed a method for coordinating bus schedules for regional routes that share common sections of the route or stop-and-transfer points. According to the results of applying the method for the Sargatsky district of the Omsk region, the results were obtained, according to which the average waiting time for a passenger in the case of a transfer was reduced by 60 %. Application of the developed method allows to organize rational distribution of arrival and departure of buses during the day according to the criterion of the minimum waiting time for passengers at the stop and transfer point and allows to solve the problem of inconsistency of bus traffic. Experimental testing has shown that the use of this technique reduces the waiting time for passengers at transfer points by up to 60%, which also reduces the time of network travel. The developed method can be used in the organization of intercity, intermunicipal and rural passenger transport.
Keywords: stop and transfer point, schedules, bus routes, passenger travel time, passenger waiting time.
