| Abstract: | Reliability of a public transport operation is known to be an important measure of level-of-service for its patrons. It has been suggested that the reliability of a transit operation may be increased by regulating transit vehicles at various checkpoints to improve the schedule adherence of vehicles. It is possible to analyse changes in vehicle performance when checkpoint control strategies are introduced, as well as measure changes in level-of-service from the patrons' point of view, by using the TRAMS package to simulate the operation of a transit network. The simulation observations can also be used to determine optimum checkpoint control strategies. |
