Abstract

The possibilities of operative management of passenger traffic with the aim of adherence to schedules and intervals represent a serious issue in planning of city passenger traffic. This is a topical issue for cities having a network of roads and streets featuring the so called deep-rooted traffic jams. In this case development of routes and bus traffic schedules should be performed with due regard to the possible deviations in rolling stock operation schedules. Therefore the development of methods of control of passenger traffic systems and the correspondent operative management is the key to preserve a proper quality of passenger services. The present paper contains theoretic underpinning and experimental validation of use of programalgorithm complex for technological and institutional management along with the scientific underpinning of the methodology for establishment of traffic control in the real-time mode. The featured program-algorithm complex allows not only a fixation of discrepancies in calculated and actual public traffic schedules, but also provides for operative corrections of the schedules of buses; if necessary, it also allows corrections of the number of actually launched rolling stock units on the line. Moreover, the passengers waiting for their bus to arrive at halting point can monitor the correspondent rolling stock unit in every point of its route, thus leading to a possibility to plan a further way of the user. Increase in quality of passenger transport services for passengers as end users of the services is impossible without application of the modern information management systems.
