ОБОСНОВАНИЕ ОПТИМАЛЬНОЙ ВМЕСТИМОСТИ МОДУЛЯ В СОСТАВЕ ПАССАЖИРСКОГО ТРАНСПОРТНОГО СРЕДСТВА ДЛЯ РЕГУЛЯРНЫХ ГОРОДСКИХ ПЕРЕВОЗОК

Abstract

Despite the huge role played by urban public passenger transport (UPPT), the technologies for organizing its functioning are outdated, which leads to inefficient use of passenger vehicle capacity (PVC), an increase in the cost of transportation and, as a result, to a decrease in the recoupment of the functioning of UPPT. One of the methods by which it is possible to increase the recoupment of the UPPT functioning is the use of modular PVC of the identical capacity. During the passenger traffic growth periods, the quantity of modules is added to them, and during the periods of passenger traffic decline, it decreases, thereby reducing prime costs of transportation. The article provides a substantiation for the optimal capacity of such a modular PVC, the structure of which would ensure maximum recoupment of the functioning of urban public passenger transport.
