Optimizing the route network of the city

Abstract

Improving the quality of passenger service by public transport is a priority in major cities of the Russian Federation. One of the important indicators of the quality of transport services in passenger transport is the regularity of transportation, which, in addition to the planned traffic intervals, also depends on factors related to the conditions of public transport in the settlement (the intensity and composition of the traffic flow, the structure of passenger traffic, the mode of traffic lights, atmospheric conditions). The article analyzes the regularity of urban public passenger transport in the conditions of the city of Ryazan, by studying the intervals of arrival of vehicles at stops along a given route. According to the results of the study, serious problems were identified in the existing route network, and measures were outlined to eliminate shortcomings in the operation of urban transport by optimizing the city route network.
