Simulation-Based Optimization in a Bidirectional $A/B$ Skip-Stop Bus Service
A two-way bus corridor system always suffers severe demand imbalance between their two operational directions during the peak hours.This paper intends to minimize the average passenger travel time by applying the A/B skip-stop strategy in such an imbalance situation.This strategy defined three types of stations: A, B, and AB.In the service, the bus
