Improving the public transit system for routes with scheduled headways
Improving the public transit system for routes with scheduled headways
This research contributes to the improvement of the optimal headway solution for the transit performance functions derived from the traffic model proposed by Hendrickson. The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, we prove that that model has a unique solution for headway. Second, we offer a formulated approximation for headway. Third, numerical examples illustrate that our formulated approximation performs more accurately than the Hendrickson’s.
