to no congestion on the road further downstream of the railway grade crossing. QUESTION 5: Consider trip distribution within 5 zones in an area. The total trip production from zone 1 is 1000. The travel times from zone 1 to zones 2, 3, 4 and 5 are 5, 10, 20, and 30 minutes, respectively. The trip attraction to zones 2, 3, 4 and 5 are 50, 200, 75, and 450, respectively. Assume that the number of trips produced from zone 1 to zones 2, 3, 4 and 5 is inversely proportional to the inter-zonal travel time. (a) Estimate the number of trips from zone 1 to zones 2, 3, 4 and 5 using the gravity model. (b) Assume that the future trip production from zone I will increase to 1,250 and the future trip attraction to zones 2, 3, 4 and 5 will increase to 100, 225, 100, and 600, respectively. Predict the number of trips from zone 1 to zones 2, 3, 4 and 5. The inter-zonal travel times remain the same. (c) Compare the number of trips from zone 1 to each destination zone between (a) and (b). Identify the…
Problem. At the train station. The operations manager have scheduled an outbound trips required to go to its place of destination. The vehicle can accommodate 90 passengers per vehicle. And there are three vehicles per train. Fifteen train sets its trip per hour. (Analyze the problem using a Block Diagram to solve the problem. This will serve as your visual aide in analyzing the train problem.) Required: 1. Determine the number of passengers who boarded the train in an hour. (How many commuters boarded the train in an hour?) 2. How many trips were made within an Hour? 3. Determine the train interval. This will serve as its scheduled trips in an Hour. 4. If the scheduled trips / operational hour will start from 6 am, and the last scheduled trip is 10 pm. How many commuters were transported presuming the train is 100 percent fully occupied.
In order to facilitate passenger transport, an express bus system is to be set up between AIT Campus and Kwame Nkrumah Interchange at a distance of 13.73 miles. The operating time is expected to be half an hour.The estimated peak demand is 3500 passengers/hr. The available buses have a seating capacity of 35 and space for 25 standees. Given a terminal time of quarter hour, i) determine the departures per hour and number of buses that will berequired to serve the passenger demand.
During morning peak hour, the passenger demand is 600. Assume that passenger demand is evenly distributed within that period and the average load/occupancy is 50 passengers per bus. Calculate the average headway of a city buses? If the passenger demand increases to be 750, calculate the number of bus units need to be added and the headway shorten?

The total number of trips from ABC to XYC is 4500. All of the trips are made using car. The government proposed two alternatives, a train and a bus. The utility is given by the equation: U = -0.05(TT)-0.04(WT) - 0.07(W) - 0.2(F) - 0.2(P) TT in-vehicle travel time WT- walking time to terminal W-waiting time F-fare P-parking cost The travel time for private car is 20 minutes, 12 for bus and 10 for train. Walking time for different terminals for bus and train is 10 and 15 minutes respectively. The waiting time is 8 and 6 minutes for bus and train respectively, and the fare for car, bus and train is at $20, $8.5 and $7 dollars respectively. Parking cost for car is $3. What is the total number of trips by train?
pls answer wt complete solution. Let the number of trips from i to j is 5000, and three modes are available which has the characteristics given below. Compute the trips made by the three modes and the fare required to travel by each mode.
A separate trip generation analysis has predicted 800 peak-hour trips for grocery shopping in this area. Given two possible stores, distribute these trips among stores and auto or bus mode.
Q3a. An express bus system is to be set up between AIT Campus and Accra Central at a distance of 18.64 miles. The operating time is expected to be one and half hours. The estimated peak demand is 1600 passengers/hr. The available buses have a seating capacity of 45 and space for 25 standees. Given a terminal time of one-sixth of an hour which is not subject to review, undertake a design of the services during the peak per iod.
Vehicles begin to arrive to a parking lot at 7:00 AM at a rate of 2000 veh/hour, but the demand reduces to 1000 veh/hour at 7:30 AM and continues at that rate. The ticketing booth to enter the parking lot can only serve the vehicles at 1000 veh/hour until 7:15 AM, after which the service rate increases to 2000 veh/hour. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, draw a queuing diagram for this situation. Find: a) the time at which the queue clears, b) the total delay, c) the longest queue length, and d) wait time of the 500th and 2000th vehicles to arrive to the parking lot (assuming FIFO conditions)?
8.5 If small express buses leave the origin described in Example 8.5 and all are filled to their capacity of 20 travelers, how many work-trip vehicles leave from origin to destination in Example 8.5 during the peak hour?
1. Planners have estimated the following models for the AM Peak Hour T₁ = 1.5 H₁ T; - (1.5 Euj1) + (1 Euthy) + (0.5 Eretj) Where: T - Person Trips Originating in Zone i T₁ = Person Trips Destined for Zone j H Esti Eath Eret Variable 10000 8000 3000 2000 Data Dakotopolis 15000 10000 5000 1500 New Fargo A. What are the number of person trips originating in and destined for each city? B. Normalize the number of person trips so that the number of person trip origins = the number of person trip destinations. Assume the model for person trip origins is more accurate.
