Kolii O. Rational location of bus and trolley bus stops along the route relatively the controlled intersections

The process of delay occurrence at the exit of route transport from the stopping point bottleneck was formalized as the object of study thanks to which there was built an analytical model to determine the time of delay of route transport departure from the stopping point bottleneck. The thesis deals with solving scientific and applied problems of determining the rational location of stopping points at the entrance or exit from controlled intersections. The methods of formalization, induction, and probability theory were used in the work. In the given work there were also developed theoretical bases of modeling the transportation demand under conditions of intensive interaction of the research object with its surroundings. In the given work there was determined the dependence of time of delay of route transport departure from the stopping point bottleneck on the traffic flow density and the distance of stopping points location relative the intersection; there were presented the results of field surveys of vehicle exchange intensity at parking lots in the downtown area of Kharkiv; there were determined the regularities of density distribution of vehicles parking and determined the density of traffic flows at different levels of congestion of the downtown area of Kharkiv. To determine the dependence of delay time of route transport departure on the intensity and distance of stopping point location relative the intersection, there were carried out calculations for the base option of a single-traffic lane controlled intersection functioning. The scientific novelty of this work lies in the fact that for the first time there was developed the scientific basis for determining the efficient arrangement of bus-stops relative the regulated intersections of city streets, by formalizing the delay time of route transport departure from the bus-stop pocket after embarkation and disembarkation of passengers, as well as offered a new approach to formalization of the model as for the needs to motoring that unlike the existing ones makes it possible to take into account the variable nature of traffic density on the road network. The results obtained in the work were used in the cities of Sumy, Kirovograd and Lvov when planning the transport network.
