Abstract:

This project assesses changes in service reliability following the introduction of a new computer-aided bus dispatch system (BDS) based on automatic vehicle location (AVL) technology. The research focuses on three objectives: 1) estimating changes in service reliability due to BOS-related improvements in operations control (i.e., reducing bus bunching, maintaining on-time arrivals, and improving coordination of timed transfers; 2) documenting changes in rider perceptions of service reliability; and 3) linking automated transit data with GIS socioeconomic and land use data to model transit use at the stop level.
