| dc.description.abstract | Delays in railway networks cause problems in the daily operation and result in reduced reliability of the railway operation. Since the delay is not caused only by the overcrowded train schedules but also the congestion at railway stations during the peak hours. In fact the determination of train dwell time is an essential step in planning railway timetable with taking the passengers‘ experience into account. In view of that, this research focuses on describing how it is possible to use passenger flow to estimate the actual delays on Addis Ababa LRT. The combination of the passenger flow on dwell time and the headway of a train is described, the research methodology adopt a strategy to estimate these paramaters to consider various kinds of improvement and demonstrating the possibility of predicting an eventual decreasing the delay of the trip and by the same time satisfy the customers. The result demonstrated that using together between dwell time and headway time to analyse the reliability of AALRT have given a benefit return concerning about the delay caused but the daily operation.. Finally, as the proposed investigated method is relatively easy to implement based on collection passengers flow data, the contributions from the outcomes of these models are briefly addressed. | en_US |
