The Model of the Optimal Number of Public Transport Vehicles in Mixed Traffic Flow Conditions: A Case Study by Milja M. Simeunović, Vuk Z. Bogdanović, Milan M. Simeunović, Pavle M. Pitka, Zoran M. Papić, Dane M. Drašković

“…In this paper, a network optimization model was developed for defining the influence of the change of traffic flow parameters in a mixed traffic flow on travel time of PT vehicles. The model takes into consideration uncertain time unevenness of the change of traffic flow parameters, which enables determining the optimization of travel time and defining the necessary number of public transport vehicles for the purpose of keeping to the planned schedule. …”
