Abstract:
To determinate the combined effect of bus bay stops near access points on the expressway capacity, a new theoretical approach is developed on the basis of gap acceptance theory and queuing theory. According to the location between the bus stop and the access upstream or downstream, the capacity models on the expressway are developed for four cases. The results show that there are no significant differences in the capacity among four cases when the bus arrival rate is less than 60 veh/h and the car volume at the entrance and exit is less than 200 pcu/h. As the bus arrival rate and the car volume at the entrance and exit increase, the bus stops at downstream of an entrance and upstream of an exit have remarkable effect on the capacity. The increasing of berth number of the bus stop has a positive effect on the capacities of four cases. Copyright © 2015 Editorial Department of Journal of Donghua University. All rights reserved.
