Abstract

A stop-hopping bus movement model considering random travel time and random demand is established. The model allows each bus to skip some stops. In order to better reflect the actual situation, the carrying capacity of the bus is considered in this paper. Assuming that the vehicle can jump and stop at each station, no station shall be skipped by two consecutive cars, and no vehicle shall skip two consecutive stations. The objective is to minimize the total cost (passenger cost and operating cost) in the planning stage by considering passenger waiting time cost, vehicle operating cost, passenger in-car cost, crowding cost and passenger flow loss cost, and to solve the optimal stop-jump strategy by using the Monte Carlo simulation method. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the model. The results show that the calculated total cost is greatly reduced compared with the full service mode, the random bus travel time and random demand have a certain impact on the performance of bus hop service, and the stop-hop strategy can greatly improve the operation performance of bus line.
