A possible establishment of the optimal express bus service between Budakeszi and Budapest
Abstract
One of the best ways to increase the attractiveness of public transport is to reduce travel time for passengers, which can be achieved by speeding up vehicle trips by skipping certain stops. However, since reducing traffic frequency is detrimental to passengers of missed stops, any change to the service must be preceded by detailed, quantitative research. In contrast to other
methods known from the literature, the model considers the coordination of trips and the effects of uneven headways.
