Effective transport service scheduling involves minimization of transit operating cost and maximization of generated revenue while meeting the demand for such service. This paper investigates the application of Genetic Algorithm in the optimization of Jeepney services along a busy section of their transit service routes. The main objective of this study is to improve transit service operations by...
Constant increase in urban road traffic is forcing traffic authorities to confront unavoidable congestion problems these days. This creates new challenges for city planners to generate traffic routes with better designs and improve the existing roads. In order to analyze and improve traffic routes, there is a need to understand movement patterns of major vehicular traffic inside the city. Origin Destination(OD)...
Currently, traffic signals in most countries have preset time periods for the red/yellow/green signals. Different roads in a city are configured with different time periods based on type and location of roads and the peak or off-peak hours. Such preset timings are inadequate in coping with unexpected situations such as a traffic accident or other natural disasters or specific unplanned events. Because...
The role of travel behavior of private cars in the vehicle routing schemes in city logistics distribution is investigated in this paper. A mixed logit model has been established to account for the influence of travel behavior to logistics distribution. A numerical study is conducted to understand the influence of the vehicle routing schemes in city logistics distribution.
Heavily congested roads in city areas are a common problem today. Several attempts to solve this problem by improving road infrastructure or imposing restrictions on motor vehicles entering city areas are not feasible, especially in developing countries like Sri Lanka. This may be due to lack of funds to improve the infrastructure, the objections of the general public on applying restrictions on the...
