1 PUBLIC TRANSPORT MODAL CHARACTERISTICS AND ROLES Outline 1. Range of Modes and Services 2. Modal Descriptions 3. Modal Comparisons and Performance Characteristics 4. Simple Capacity Analysis Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 1
2 Roles for Each Mode Low density flows Spread O-D flows Auto-> Car pools -> Van pools High density flows Concentrated O-D flows Automated guideway subscription bus taxi -> shared ride taxi -> publicos -> fixed bus route -> light rail -> heavy rail Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 2
3 Spectrum of Services Increasing vehicle capacity -----> Increasing passenger flows -----> Vehicle Type Operating Arrangements Car Van Minibus Bus Light Rail Heavy Rail Drivers Free Low Cost High Cost (conventional transit) Low cost (automated) Right of way Shared Dual Mode Dedicated Routing and Scheduling Flexible Hybrid Fixed Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 3
4 Transit Categories (based on Vuchic) 1. Rights of Way Based on degree of segregation Surface with mixed traffic: buses, light rail: with/without preferential treatment Longitudinal separation but at-grade crossing interference: light rail, bus rapid transit Full separation: at-grade, tunnel, elevated Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 4
5 Transit Categories (cont d) 2. Technologies Key technological characteristics: (a) (b) Support - contact between vehicle and surface rubber tire on concrete steel wheel on steel rail others Guidance - lateral control: steered by driver guided by track others Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 5
6 Transit Categories (cont d) 2. Technologies Key technological characteristics: (c) (d) Propulsion: diesel ICE: conventional or clean CNG electric motor hybrid others Control manual/visual manual/signal automatic: ATO, ATC Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 6
7 Modal Descriptions Bus: vehicles operating individually with rubber tires, with manual lateral and longitudinal control Key decisions: Vehicles size: minibus (20 passengers) up to bi-articulated (165+ passengers) Vehicle design: high floor or low floor Right-of-way: all options are available Guidance: is guided operation appropriate at some locations? Propulsion: all options available Fare payment: on-vehicle or off-vehicle Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 7
8 Modal Descriptions (cont d) Light Rail: vehicles operating individually or in short trains with electric motors and overhead power collector, steel wheel on steel rail with manual or automatic longitudinal control Key decisions: Vehicle design: high floor or low floor, articulated or rigid body Right-of-way: all options available Operating arrangements: automated or manually driven Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 8
9 Modal Descriptions (cont d) Heavy Rail/Metro: vehicles operating in trains with electric motors on fully separated rights-of-way with manual signal or automatic longitudinal control; level boarding, off-vehicle fare payment Key decisions: Train length Right-of-way: at-grade, elevated, or tunnel Station spacing Operating arrangements: degree of automation Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 9
10 Modal Descriptions (cont d) Commuter Rail: vehicles operating in trains with long station spacing, serving long trips into central city, large imbalance between peak hour and other period ridership. Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 10
11 Traditional Transit Services Bus on shared right-of-way Streetcar on shared right-of-way Heavy rail on exclusive right-of-way Commuter/Regional rail on semi-exclusive right-of-way Newer Service Concepts Bus Rapid Transit Light Rail on exclusive right-of-way Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 11
12 Increasing Diversity Driver arrangements: part-timers, 10-hour days, pay by vehicle type Routing and scheduling: fixed, flexible, advance booking Vehicle types: minibuses, articulated buses and railcars, bi-level railcars, low-floor Control options: fixed block, moving block, manual, ATO, ATC Priority options: full grade separation, semiexclusive right-of-way, signal pre-emption Dual mode operations: bus, light rail Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 12
13 Modal Comparison: Bus vs. Rail Rail advantages: High capacity Lower operating costs Better service quality Stronger land use influence Fewer negative externalitites Bus advantages: Low capital costs Wide network coverage Single vehicle trips Flexibility Dual mode nature Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 13

18 Simple Capacity Analysis Question: Given a pie-shaped sector corridor serving a CBD served by a single transit line, what will be the peak passenger flow at the CBD? Nigel H.M. Wilson 1.258J/11.541J/ESD.226J 18
19 Simple Capacity Analysis Given: P c = population density at CBD dp = rate of decrease of population density with distance from CBD θ = angle served by corridor r = distance out from CBD L = corridor length t = number of one-way trips per person per day c = share of trips inbound to CB m = transit market share for CBD-bound trips p = share of CBD-bound transit trips in peak hour Then: Population in corridor = = Nigel H.M.
