项目名称: A Comprehensive Evaluation of I-275 Bus-on-Shoulder (BOS) Pilot Project
摘要: The objectives of the research include: (1) Evaluate the effectiveness of bus-on-shoulder (BOS) operation, including driver experience, ease of accessing the shoulders, adequacy of shoulder width, frequency of encountering obstacles on shoulders and how quickly they were cleared, passenger car drivers’ reaction, BOS motorist violations, etc. (2) Evaluate transit route system performance changes, including BOS transit operations ridership, schedule reliability, safety (motorist, transit, law enforcement, passenger), frequency of use of BOS, and other indicators of transit level of service (LOS). (3) Evaluate the effectiveness of BOS installed in both the northbound and southbound directions at the 38th Avenue N and 54th Avenue N on-ramps. (4) Evaluate whether I-275 BOS project leads to traffic and safety impacts to I-275 project segment and parallel local streets due to spill-over of traffic from on-ramps of I-275 segment. (5) Provide recommendations that may improve the implementation and operation of BOS, such as training, marketing, structure modification, traffic operations and control, etc.
