Description
The transit agencies aim to allocate limited resources properly and maximise ridership. Measuring the performance of individual transit routes within a transit system plays a critical role in finding operational problems and increasing transit ridership. The Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method has been employed to compare the performance of different units (e.g., transit operators, transit lines/ routes within a transit system). This paper first reviews the application of DEA for transit performance evaluation. Thereafter, with a case study on a bus route in Brisbane, a pilot study is conducted to discuss the application of DEA for temporal performance evaluation (service effectiveness) of a transit route considering number of services and travel time as inputs and transit work and on-time performance as outputs.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
