South Coast British Columbia Transportation Authority Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment 12 th TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference, Houston TX, May 2009 Wolfgang Scherr, PTV Ian Fisher, TransLink

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Overview > Transit planning in Metro Vancouver and current capacity issues > Dynamic transit assignment – the method > Model development > Application in service planning and operations planning > Conclusions and future directions 2

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment 3 Metro Vancouver 21 cities 2.2 million residents, 3.2 million by 2040 > 294 million transit boardings (unlinked) in 2007 > 78 annual transit rides (linked) per resident Major gateway for sea, air and rail freight > No urban freeways/motorways > Prior to 1999 no regional transportation agency

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment TransLink Mandate - Integration of: 4 Public Transport Intelligent Transportation Systems Vehicle Emissions Testing Regional Cycling Transportation Demand Management Roads & Bridges

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Intermodal Transit Network > ALRT (SkyTrain) > Commuter rail (West Coast Express) > Passenger ferry (SeaBus) > Bus (includes trolleybus) > B-Line (frequent, limited stop) > Community shuttle (minibus) > BRT and LRT (planned) 5

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment 6 Rapid Transit Projects in the Region Not pictured: BRT projects

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Current SkyTrain Capacity Issues Picture: Broadway Station (SkyTrain), inbound boarding, AM peak. SkyTrain capacity: major subject for application of this model 7

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Overview of the Regional Transit Model (RTM) 24-hour operations model (supply), average weekday 24-hour passenger model (demand) > Dynamic assignment > Fixed OD matrices, 800 zones, interface to regional four-stage model Platform: VISUM Applications > Operations planning: routes and patterns, fleet requirements, schedule development > Operations analysis for new rapid transit corridors > Service planning: transit area plans, bus network planning > Visualizations and animations that are comprehensible to lay people History: > Phase A (2006): rail-only model > Phase B (2008): regional model of all modes 8

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment The Dynamic Assignment Method VISUM’s “Timetable-based assignment” > Schedule-based method (as opposed to headway-based) > Path-builder uses operations schedule data > The supply model based on individual vehicle runs > Assumption: deterministic flow of vehicles and trains according to schedule > Multiple paths and multiple connections are built using branch&bound > Naturally a time-dynamic method: > Travel conditions vary during the day > Availability of paths varies during the day > Travel time of paths varies during the day > Path choice: > Box-Cox transformed LOGIT > Impedance = IVT + OVT + NT + Delta(early, late) + {correction for similarity of connections} > Vancouver RTM: capacity constraints not included 9

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment 11 The 24-Hour Dynamic Assignment 30-minute time-dynamic passenger volumes 2011, colour-coded by v/c-ratio

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Model Development – Supply Side 12 Integration of existing operations data Network topology > Nodes and links (NAVTEQ street network) > Stops, stations (resolution as in APC/AVL) Schedule > Data: lines/routes/patterns, run times, runs with departure and arrival times > Existing schedule: imported > Future schedule: edited Fleet model > Vehicle types, capacities, consists > Procedure for block building (vehicle rotations)

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Model Development – Demand Side Counts > Station boarding counts – good 24-hour coverage for SkyTrain > Link loading counts: ferry, commuter rail, specific SkyTrain links > Automated Passenger Count System (APC) > All bus lines except community shuttles > Mainly used: total route boardings in hourly increments over 24-hours > APC evaluation tool was still being calibrated itself during our model calibration OD matrices > Four segments : AM, Midday, PM, Evening > Existing demand: derived with matrix calibration and matrix crafting methods > Future demand: > Link to regional four stage model > Future OD demand = existing OD demand + delta forecast Departure time distributions > Derived from counts > Adjusted to meet real-world time distributions all over the region 13

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Model Development: Departure Time Distribution > Morning peak of demand: dependent on distance from centre > Afternoon peak: no significant difference observed between markets 14

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment 15 Calibration of Time-Dynamics: Model versus Counts Rail stations: centre versus sub-urban

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment 16 Calibration of Time-Dynamics: Model versus Counts Suburban bus lines (aggregated APC data for several routes)

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Applications (1): Operations Scenarios SkyTrain 17 Study > Develop and analyze multiple scenarios to operate SkyTrain with existing fleet Result > The present operations are optimal with regard to capacity Analysis > Use of aggregated and time-disagregated performance measures

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Other Applications (2) Other SkyTrain Studies: > Future maximal capacity for the critical segment BW-WF > Fleet strategy: it is desirable to add 3-car units to the fleet (now only 2-car units) > Operations concepts for future extensions of the SkyTrain system (UBC Line, Evergreen Line) Bus service planning: > Bus network planning in the context of a new rail line > The Canada Line (ALRT) will open in 8/2009 > Bus realignments, bus schedules, bus fleet usage System Analysis: > 2011 short-term forecast: interaction of the existing SkyTrain Lines with the new Canada Line 18

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment Conclusions (1) Transit supply varies over time > The use of dynamic tools seems natural in transit planning. A lesson learned > It is good to start with a sub-network and later expand to entire region > Early applications allow: > Planners to learn the tool, the data > Stakeholders to give feedback and formulate requirements for the final model Benefits of 24-hour dynamic transit assignment: > Better understanding how demand builds up at congested spots > Analysis of peak and off-peak operations > Visualizations of time-dynamic supply and demand 19

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment One Benefit of Dynamic Assignment: Visualization DA can help to visualize and explain truths about congestion: > Congestion is of short duration - in a 24-hour perspective > It is challenging to provide capacity as flexibly as demand varies > The demand peak has shifted and the rules of operations have to adjust 20

Regional Application of 24-Hour Dynamic Transit Assignment 21 Future Perspectives Next studies: > Contribute operations analysis to three major strategic studies: > Expo Line Upgrade study > UBC Line rapid transit study > Strategic Network Review > Analysis of BRT projects > Area transit plans Future model improvements: > Calibration of in-station transfer volumes (recent surveys) > Adding capacity constraints to the assignment model > Holding passengers in stations if departing train over capacity > Diverting passengers to alternative paths > Changing time of departure (peak spreading) > Research on time-of-day distribution of demand
