A separate trip generation analysis has predicted 800 peak-hour trips for grocery shopping in this area. Given two possible stores, distribute these trips among stores and auto or bus mode.
Question: For a two- way bus route, if the demand service is 250 passenger/hr and the route length is 20 km. The route is to be served by 30 seat buses with allow 15 standing passenger with average speed of 40 km/hr. Assuming that all the bus will reach to the destination and leave fully loaded. Also , the bus scheduled must be in 5 minutes increment. Calculate the number of buses required to serve this route ?
8.5 If small express buses leave the origin described
in Example 8.5 and all are filled to their capacity of
20 travelers, how many work-trip vehicles leave from
origin to destination in Example 8.5 during the peak
hour?

- Problem. At the train station. The operations manager have scheduled an outbound trips required to go to its place of destination. The vehicle can accommodate 90 passengers per vehicle. And there are three vehicles per train. Fifteen train sets its trip per hour. (Analyze the problem using a Block Diagram to solve the problem. This will serve as your visual aide in analyzing the train problem.) Required: 1. Determine the number of passengers who boarded the train in an hour. (How many commuters boarded the train in an hour?) 2. How many trips were made within an Hour? 3. Determine the train interval. This will serve as its scheduled trips in an Hour. 4.

- The total number of trips from ABC to XYC is 4500. All of the trips are made using car. The government proposed two alternatives, a train and a bus. The utility is given by the equation: U = -0.05(TT)-0.04(WT) - 0.07(W) - 0.2(F) - 0.2(P) TT in-vehicle travel time WT- walking time to terminal W-waiting time F-fare P-parking cost The travel time for private car is 20 minutes, 12 for bus and 10 for train. Walking time for different terminals for bus and train is 10 and 15 minutes respectively. The waiting time is 8 and 6 minutes for bus and train respectively, and the fare for car, bus and train is at $20, $8.5 and $7 dollars respectively. Parking cost for car is $3. What is the total number of trips by train?arrow_forwardVehicles begin to arrive to a parking lot at 7:00 AM at a rate of 2000 veh/hour, but the demand reduces to 1000 veh/hour at 7:30 AM and continues at that rate. The ticketing booth to enter the parking lot can only serve the vehicles at 1000 veh/hour until 7:15 AM, after which the service rate increases to 2000 veh/hour. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, draw a queuing diagram for this situation. Find: a) the time at which the queue clears, b) the total delay, c) the longest queue length, and d) wait time of the 500th and 2000th vehicles to arrive to the parking lot (assuming FIFO conditions)?arrow_forward2) Given the following data for five traffic analysis zones (TAZ): Zone Production Attraction 1 1 2 4 The travel times are as follows: 5 13 min 20 min 15 min 450 600 270 325 0 9 min 7 min 5 min 3 400 750 120 0 350 Determine the trips on the following: T1-3 and T2-5.arrow_forward
- A 24-km-long metro circle line has 15 stations. The line operates with an average operating speed of 30 km/h and a headway of 4 minutes. The average standing time at each station is 60 s. a. By how much should the average standing time be reduced to allow the transit agency to reduce the number of TUs by two while keeping the same operating schedule? b. Considering the original condition, what is the required increase in the operating speed to reduce the headway to 3.5 minutes? Consider the line operates under the conditions of part a. Due to improvement in the line operations, the operating speed can be increased by 4 km/h over the speed under part a. Assuming the headway remains the same, compute the new operating speed, cycle time and number of TUs. C.arrow_forward7. A toll bridge from Manila to Lapu-Lapu City carries 4000 vehicles per day. The present toll fee is P2.30. When the toll fee is increased by PO.20, traffic volume will decrease by 400 vehicles per day. It is desired to increase the toll fee to a point where revenue will be maximized. Determine the toll change to maximize revenue.arrow_forwardA household has 17 members and an annual income of P20,000. They currently live in a neighborhood with 550 retail employees, but are moving to a new home in a neighborhood with 150 retail employees.

Use: Vehicle-based Shopping Trips = 0.12 + 0.09HS + 0.011AHI - 0.15EH HS - household size AHI - annual household income in thousand pesos EH - employment in household's neighborhood in hundreds Note: use two decimal placesarrow_forward
- 16. A bus line operates in mixed traffic and caries 4000 passengers per peak hour at an average speed of 10 mi/h. Typically each bus makes two scheduled stops per mile and is interrupted by the traffic- control system and other vehicles six times per mile. Given an average occupancy of 50 persons per bus and a 5-mi trip, calculate the number of buses needed to serve the passenger demand and the total amount of fuel consumed during a typical peak hour.arrow_forwardA large retirement village has a total retail employment of 120. All 1600 of the households in this village consist of two nonworking family members with household income of $20,000. Assuming that shopping and social/recreational trip rates both peak during the same hour (for exposition purposes), predict the total number of peak-hour trips generated by this village using the trip generation models of Example Problems 1 and 2.arrow_forwardQUESTION 3 a) Describe the factors affecting trip production and trip attraction in a zonal level. Explain their effects on trip generation and why. b) Describe potential travel demand management strategies which can increase average vehicle occupancy during commuter peak hours. Explain how these strategies would change travel patterns, travel time and fuel consumption. e) Explain how residential development in low-density suburban areas affects mode choice and travel distance of work trips.
