STUDY OF THE MOVEMENT INTENSITY OF URBAN PASSENGER TRANSPORT THROUGH BUS STOP POINTS

Abstract

Due to the wide variety of urban passenger transport; the terms, types and capacity of buses are the main parameters that will be denoted in this study, the question here arises as to whether this diversity affects the throughput of bus stop point capacity. The studies of the traffic intensity of urban passenger transport, at fifteen stopping points, made it possible to give an idea of: The number of fixed-path minibus changes over time and not obeying the movement regularity with other types of urban passenger transport. Where that indicates the influence of an economic factor associated only to make a profit. The intensity of urban passenger transport through the bus stopping point shows the dominance of route minibus on it, and it that consider the main cause of congestion at the stop points; the movement of various types of urban passenger transport through the stopping point is carried out in a random order, it also causes congestion, too. Purpose. Analysis of factors affecting the capacity of a bus stop point for urban passenger transport. Methodology in the article, economic-mathematical methods, and also statistical methods of the analysis were used. Results. The most important parameters showing some aspects of carrying out the analysis of public transport movement operations at stop points are received. Practical implications. The results obtained should be considered while planning and manage the movement of urban passenger transport.
