<title>Abstract</title> A model is proposed to calculate the overall operating and delay times spent at bus stops due to passenger boarding and alighting and the time lost to queuing caused by bus stop saturation. A formula for line demand at each stop and the interaction between the buses themselves is...

<title>Abstract</title> This paper puts forward a methodology for designing a system for school transport which, apart from designing routes, specifies school opening times. Traditionally school opening times have always been identical in the same area meaning many buses have to be used at the same time. This...

<title>A<sc>bstract</sc> </title> School transport in Spain is conceived administratively as a regular, but special, public transport service financed by the Spanish regional governments through private sector contracts adjudicated by public tendering. As such it has two special features in comparison to systems...

A model is proposed to determine the global satisfaction of interurban bus service users. The most relevant variables are determined globally for all users as well as by user segments. Various ordered-type logit and probit models are fitted for user behavior, to determine the most important...
