Automated timetable design for demand-oriented service on suburban railways

Automated timetable design for demand-oriented service on suburban railways Economic and attractive operation of suburban railways can only be realised by flexibilisation of headways, adaptation of the network and capacity of the different lines. Under those circumstances, the computation of optimal operation programmes is very complex. This contribution presents a two-level approach (computation of transport offer, timetable design) and shows the results obtained from fully-automatic offer planning and timetabling for a suburban railway. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Public Transport Springer Journals

Abstract

Economic and attractive operation of suburban railways can only be realised by flexibilisation of headways, adaptation of the network and capacity of the different lines. Under those circumstances, the computation of optimal operation programmes is very complex. This contribution presents a two-level approach (computation of transport offer, timetable design) and shows the results obtained from fully-automatic offer planning and timetabling for a suburban railway.
