REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION – REACTIVATION

Abstract

Passenger quantity histogram was used to measure the character of passengers’ migration, pick commuter times, equal intensity and minimal commuter numbers. The measurement was done pre and post changes introduced to the train timetable for both working days and weekends (Saturdays and Sundays). The small numbers of passengers made this connection unsustainable without substantial financial support from the government. The changes introduced to the timetable failed to generate increased demand for the service. The Pareto chart clearly illustrates the changes introduced to the timetable over the period of this research. Other disadvantages of the new timetable were also pointed out in this paper.
