Q1 number of boarding and alighting passengers estimated for the route are given in Table 1. GreenBus is planning a new bus route with four stops in the central business district. The The buses will have 42 seats and up to 10 standing spaces. The following assumptions are made: Boarding time is 5.5 sec per passenger. . If standees are present, boarding time increases by 40%. . Alighting time is 3.5 sec per passenger. • The time taken for doors to open and close is 4.0 sec. . Table 1: Number of passengers boarding and alighting at the proposed stops Bus Stop 1 2 3 4 Number of Passengers Boarding 40 22 16 0 (a) Calculate the dwell time for each bus stop. (b) Determine the coefficient of variation of dwell times. Alighting 0 14 24 40 U (c) Estimate the failure rate for the critical bus stop if the loading area capacity is 8 buses per hour, the clearance time is 10 seconds and the green time to cycle length ratio is 0.40.
