  1. 11. Wheelchair Passengers and Local Public Transport Vehicles: Perceptions of Safety and Comfort

    Författare :Anders Wretstrand; Trafik och väg; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Road transport technology; Public transport; Bus; STS; Perception; Comfort; Wheelchair users; Safety; Vägtransportteknik; Care and help to handicapped; Handikappade; vård och rehabilitering;

    Sammanfattning : Eliciting wheelchair-seated passengers’ perspective of safety and comfort is both useful and mandatory, particularly for researchers, clinicians, transit authorities, and for operators during purchase and use of vehicle technologies in existing and planned future transport systems. Therefore, the overarching objective of this thesis was to delineate the question of safety and comfort as perceived by wheelchair-seated passengers using public transport road vehicles. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Assessment of Application of Participatory Methods for Complex Adaptive Systems  in the Public Sector

    Författare :Maksims Kornevs; Sebastiaan Meijer; Jannicke Baalsrud Hauge; Paul Grogan; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :: participatory methods; complex adaptive system; public sector; change process; assessment; participativa metoder; komplext adaptivt system; offentlig sektor; förändringsprocess; bedömning;

    Sammanfattning : The provision of services by the public sector is the result of a complex adaptive system at work, and involves a large number of stakeholders from different institutions and organisations. In the era of rapid change in requirements and expectations from the public sector, the management of change processes asks for the involvement of many stakeholders from different layers and positions.

  3. 13. Simulation based evaluation of flexible transit

    Författare :David Leffler; Erik Jenelius; Wilco Burghout; Oded Cats; Jan Persson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Sammanfattning : Transport authorities are faced with the challenge of making effective use of existing transportation infrastructure under increasing needs of transport accessibility, sustainability, and safety. The ongoing growth and adoption of shared mobility options, the anticipation of automated vehicles, and the increased availability of real-time data brought on with the developments of Intelligent Transport Systems, have all inspired many innovations in public transit design.

    Författare :Johan Wahlstedt; Karl-Lennart Bång; Haris Koutsopoulos; Lars-Göran Mattsson; Kosonen Iisakki; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bus priority; public transport priority; transit priority; PTSP; TSP; traffic signal; traffic signal control; traffic signal control systems; self-optimising signal control; PRIBUSS; SIL simulation; traffic simulation; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Sammanfattning : Increasing congestion and environmental concerns have evoked an interest in promoting urban Public Transport (PT) the last decades. In 2012 the City of Stockholm adopted an “Urban mobility strategy” stating that public transport, cycling and walking should be prioritised over cars in central Stockholm. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Planeringsfrågan väg till hållplats - i relation till statlig policy och råd för en hållbar transportutveckling i städer

    Författare :Karin Berg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; analytical standpoint; a holistic view in urban planning and a theory practice gap.; using quality perspectives; resolving quality conflicts; pathway to transit stop; conceptual quality tool; public transportation; urban planning; city planning; inclusive critical attitude; policies and planning tools; Sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : International and governmental policy emphasizes public transportation for a sustainable future in cities. According to the Swedish Door-To-Door Policy project pathways to transit stops are important parts of public transportation, for many groups of users (in this study also called a Whole-Travel-Perspective).
