This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent progress in technology has facilitated the design, testing, and deployment of traffic signal priority strategies for transit buses. However, a clear consensus has not emerged regarding the evaluation of these strategies. Each agency implementing these strategies can have differing goals, and there are often conflicting issues, needs, and concerns among the various stakeholders. This research attempts to assist in the evaluation of such strategies by presenting an evaluation framework and plan that provides a systematic method to assess potential impacts. The results of the research include the development of specific measures corresponding to particular objectives, with descriptions to facilitate their use by agencies evaluating traffic signal priority. The use of this framework and plan is illustrated on the Columbia Pike corridor in Arlington, Virginia with the use of the INTEGRATION simulation package. In building upon prior efforts on this corridor, this work presents a method of simulating conditional granting of priority to late buses in an attempt to investigate the impacts of priority on service reliability. Using the measures developed in this research, statistically significant improvements of 3.2% were found for bus service reliability and 0.9% for bus efficiency, while negative other traffic-related impacts were found in the form of increases in overall delay to the corridor of 1.0% on a vehicle basis or 0.6% on a person basis.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To improve the level of service for Community Transit (CT) buses, the South Snohomish Regional Transit Signal Priority (SS-RTSP) project was launched. To understand the overall benefit of this project, the SS-RTSP system was tested and evaluated after the hardware and software had been installed on the 164th Street SW corridor (Phase One) and the SR 99 corridor (Phase Two) in Snohomish County, Washington State. In this study, impacts of the SS-RTSP system on both transit and local traffic operations were quantitatively evaluated on the basis of field-observed data. Simulation models were also built and calibrated to compute measures of effectiveness that could not be obtained from field-observed data. With simulation models and field observed data, the impacts of the SS-RTSP system on both transit and local traffic operations were quantitatively evaluated. Our evaluation results showed that the SS-RTSP system provided remarkable benefits to transit vehicles, with insignificant negative impacts to local traffic on cross-streets under the current coordinated control strategy. The overall impact of the SS-RTSP system on local traffic at each entire intersection was not statistically significant at the p=0.05 level. To improve the performance of the current SS-RTSP system, more transit vehicles can be made TSP eligible. The average number of granted TSP trips was only 16.96 per day per intersection during the Phase One test and 14.40 during Phase Two test. Given that negative impacts of the SS-RTSP project on local traffic were not significant, more transit trips can be granted with proper TSP treatment to generate more benefits from the SS-RTSP system. Further simulation-based investigations on TSP system operations and optimization were conducted. The research findings indicated that to achieve the best operation efficiency, the compatibility between TSP control schemes and signal control coordination should be strengthened to minimize transit disruption to signal coordination. TSP systems must be fully tested under different coordinated control plans prior to implementation.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) uses strategies such as exclusive bus lanes, off-vehicle fare collection, high quality vehicles and stations, signal priority, among others. Transit Signal Priority (TSP) is frequently seen as an option to improve performance of public transportation systems at the operational level. TSP is an operational strategy that aims at reducing the delays at intersections for transit vehicles. The goal is to reduce travel times and improve service reliability. The use of transit priority strategies, properly designed for BRT, can complement its other features and potentially contribute to improved performance. However, BRT corridors present a number of challenges and operating characteristics that differ from conventional corridors which are worth considering. This thesis evaluates the potential of incorporating different priority strategies, especially TSP, into BRT operations both in the U.S. and in developing countries. A corridor from Boston, MA and a corridor from Santiago, Chile are analyzed, assessing TSP strategies that consider different conditions such as headway, loads, and traffic demand in a BRT context. Results for both case studies support the belief that TSP can provide travel time reductions for transit vehicles, together with reductions in headway variability. However, results proved to be very sensitive to increases in traffic congestion and transit frequency. The research provides insights into the potential of TSP under medium and high levels of traffic demand, as well as under higher frequencies. Further research is necessary to make the models more robust and test the sensitivity of the parameters of the priority strategies. Evaluation of other priority strategies like the use of full exclusive bus lanes and signal coordination are also included.
