The new era of shared economy has raised our expectations to make mobility more sustainable through better utilization of existing resources and capacity. In this thesis, we focus on the design of transport systems that stimulate multi-purpose trips with t ...
Together with signal priority, dedication of space to public transport has been the most widely used policy to improve bus operations. Permanent dedicated bus lanes however can lead to an under-utilization of the available space. Dierent strategies such as ...
Dedicated bus lanes provide a low cost and easily implementable strategy to improve transit service by minimizing congestion-related delays. Identifying the best spatial distribution of bus-only lanes in order to maximize traffic performance of an urban ne ...
Buses operating in mixed traffic experience problems with delay and travel time variability in peak periods. Numerous transit priority measures are found in the literature but most rely on separating buses from other vehicles. Complete separation such as d ...
This research presents the implementation of two different transit signal priority strategies and assesses their impact on the whole network through a bi-modal three-dimensional Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram. The first TSP strategy is the green extension ...
The goal of this thesis is to analyze lane changes and lane choice in a congested urban envi- ronment. This is possible thanks to the pNEUMA dataset, a new trac dataset resulting from a eld experiment with 10 drones ying over the central district of Athen ...
Recent advances in the network-level traffic flow modelling provide an efficient tool for analyzing traffic performance of large-scale networks. A relationship between density and flow at the network level is developed and widely studied, namely the macros ...
The objective of this scientific paper is to present the m3 metro project, in particular the Casernes-Blécherette section. The article is a summary of the final project development based on the technical report [1]. It includes the geological and hydrogeol ...
This study analyzes carpool in morning commute, using a bottleneck model that allocates a fraction of the bottleneck capacity to a high-occupancy-vehicle (HOV) or a high-occupancy-toll (HOT) lane. Commuters are homogeneous cost minimizers who participate c ...
Microscopic traffic flow models can be distinguished in lane-based or lane-free depending on the degree of lane-discipline. This distinction holds true only if motorcycles are neglected in lane-based traffic. In cities, as opposed to highways, this is an o ...
