Title

Microsimulation Study of Bus Priority Performance Impact at Intersection

Abstract

Traffic planning should concentrate on the advancement of public transport to ensure sustainability. One of the key reasons for the decline in the usage of buses in urban India is poor service quality. Buses play a vital role in providing secure and reliable travel in congested areas because it makes efficient use of limited road space, transporting much more passengers per unit of road space than a personal vehicle. Bus Priority Measures are techniques used to give buses priority over general. However, just a few research studies on bus priority systems in developing nations like India have been documented in the literature. This study aimed to assess travel time savings, various traffic performance indicators, and liability benefits to address transportation challenges such as delays by systematically simulating the impacts of various bus priority measures with respect to existing conditions. The results of the VISSIM simulation studies and comparisons with field traffic behavior indicated that the created models accurately depict the actual nature of traffic with a margin of error of less than 10%. The simulation model of bus priority measure result showed that priority measures reduced bus delays at an intersection and some of the measures can easily develop with less investment. The impact of offering a bus priority method for the signalized intersection was evaluated using the micro-simulation tool VISSIM in this study. According to the study, bus priority measure is projected to be effective even in a heterogeneous traffic condition like that seen in India. Transportation planners should focus on methods to minimize delays, enhance service management, and dependability since they are low-cost and provide highly efficient traffic management, preserving buses moving and enhancing mobility in congested locations.
