This paper considers the stability of the dynamical system which arises when a responsive control system is utilised in a signal-controlled urban road network. In this case current traffic flows change current green-times (according to the responsive control policy) and current green-times...

Public transport infrastructure has not kept up with the demands of growing populations in cities in developing countries. Infrastructure provision has historically been biased against less affluent areas, so access to formal jobs is often difficult and costly for a large part of the...

Einer Langfristprojektion des DIW Berlin zufolge wird der Personenverkehr in Berlin bis 2050 nur wenig zunehmen. Die Zahl der Wege steigt gegenüber 2005 um 2 %, die der zurückgelegten Personenkilometer um 6 %. Während der motorisierte Individualverkehr in der genannten Periode zunimmt, ist...

A sufficiently accessible public transport, is one of the main factors for the implementation of congestion charging, which ensures addition, an adequate level of social equity in mobility, a high degree of social acceptance. This article based on a population survey for the City of Madrid and...

The global shift to private transport is impacting on the environment in a number of ways, including increases in vehicle emissions that, in turn, contribute to the major problem of global warming and potential climate change. This suggests a need to improve strategies to encourage greater use...

The Electric Vehicle Scheduling Problem (E-VSP) complicates traditional bus scheduling for public transport by restricting the range of the buses. To compensate for these limitations, detours to charging stations become necessary in order to charge the vehicle batteries. Charging is a nonlinear...
