Research on Evaluation Method for the Service Quality of Public Transport Based on Time Reliability Degree

Article Preview

Abstract:

Devoting major efforts to developing public transport and practicing public traffic priority has been one of the important approaches to solve traffic problems. In order to evaluate the quality of public transport services quickly and accurately, time reliability degree is taken as evaluation index. The time reliability degree of the bus line can be got through the computation of the reliability degree of running and waiting time. In the end, the bus line of K362 in Changchun city is taken as an example to show the evaluation process. The evaluation theory and method of public transport system is perfected by the result.
