Dolya O. Effectiveness functioning routes of urban passenger transport

In the article, the effectiveness of the functioning of urban passenger transport routes is considered. It is established that the functioning of urban passenger transport routes takes place in a non-isolated environment, affects the system from the time it was created, and can lead to a discrepancy between the calculated and actual system performance. As a result of the analysis of the performance indicators of the passenger transportation route, it is revealed that the environment of the functioning of routes affects their effectiveness in a complex manner. As a result, the mutual influence of one factor on the other should be taken into account. The performance evaluation should be carried out for the entire route system, and not within the separately considered subsystem. The integrated approach to determining the efficiency of urban passenger transport routes is based not only on the permanent, but also on the stochastic parameters that occur during the functioning of these routes. The developed algorithm for determining the efficiency of urban route passenger transport, in contrast to existing ones, takes into account the interrelation of incomes and expenditures, modern ideas about the patterns of changes in the probability of development of optimistic, pessimistic and intermediate variants of the development of route effectiveness events. Keywords: transport system, urban passenger transport route, traffic efficiency, transportation process stagnancy, traffic volume, payback period.
