OPTIMIZATION OF TRANSPORTATION ON URBAN PASSENGER LINES

Abstract

[For the English abstract and full text of the article please see the attached PDF-File (English version follows Russian version)].ABSTRACT The objective of the work is to optimize urban transportation by giving priority to route passenger transport, including by using bus lanes. Methods of study are full-scale observations, statistics, and reporting. Improvement of traffic management can increase safety level, reduce a number of conflict points, increase carrying capacity and speed of communication, ensure application of advanced technologies in the system of vehicle movement regulation. The article continues reports on researches conducted by the authors in the town of Tambov (see World of Transport and Transportation, Vol. 13, 2015, Iss. 3 and 5). Keywords: bus, trolleybus, bus lanes, route passenger transport, traffic management, carrying capacity, speed of communication.
