Abstract
The objective of the article is to obtain dependencies linking time spent by passengers on travel by public transport with the main factors that form the elements of this time spending. The research used methods of analytical modelling, mathematical and transport statistics, survey, analytical and logical analysis, methodology of transport research.
Mathematical models for estimating passenger travel time in cities using public transport are considered. Attention is drawn to formation of each of the elements of travel time and to the relationship of these elements with each other. Such elements comprise time of walking to the stopping point of departure and of walking from the stopping point of arrival to the destination of the trip; waiting time for boarding a vehicle; travel time spent in a vehicle along the route. The dependences of these elements on the factors that form time spending have been identified. The increase in time spent waiting for boarding a vehicle is investigated depending on reduction in the planned number of vehicles due to breakdowns. The above models can be used in transport planning and assessing quality o f public transportation in terms of passenger travel time.
