Methodology for Providing Priority to Urban Passenger Transport Traffic

The article considers the efficiency of providing priority conditions for urban passenger transport by allocating separate lanes for public transport on the roadway. The results of modelling the traffic flow on the considered segments of the city street network are complemented by a conclusion about the need to improve road traffic management on these segments, considering the intensity and composition of the traffic flow.

Simulation allows creating mathematical or computer models for analysing and assessing the traffic conditions of urban passenger transport. The models are based on various parameters of traffic flows, the schedule of urban passenger transport, the location of public transport stops, etc. Modelling allows conduct of different experiments to assess the effectiveness of various measures and changes in the transport system.

The objective of the study is to develop a methodology for analysing traffic conditions that will identify and assign priority to urban passenger transport traffic to achieve efficiency and comfort of its operation, improve transport accessibility and reduce traffic delays.

Optimisation of the traffic provides for various management scenarios to find optimal solutions that reduce delays, congestion, traffic intensity, etc.

Route planning is necessary for developing an optimal strategy for efficient passenger service. Demand forecasts make it possible to predict not only passenger traffic, but also the need for transportation in different periods, which is necessary for route planning and selection of optimal rolling stock features. All these areas of modelling the urban passenger transport traffic are developed to achieve the goals of increasing efficiency, reducing the risk of road traffic accidents, improving the quality of transport services and the safety of passenger transportation, which should create a sustainable system aimed at satisfying the basic needs of urban transport passengers.
