Holding strategies in a bus-route model
Scott A. Hill ;
Date 1 Sep 2007
AbstractOne of the challenges of operating a bus route is to prevent the formation of clusters, where a bus becomes so late that the following bus catches up to it. This instability is inherent to the system, and efforts must be made to prevent a late bus from becoming later or, worse, causing the entire system of buses to run late. We present a simple, deterministic model of buses on a single bus route. We discuss the use of schedule slack in this model to allow late buses to recover, and compare the effects of schedule-based and headway-based holding on the stability of the system.
