Definition of Transportation Planning
• Process of drawing up courses of action in terms of

infrastructure facilities and carrier services to serve the
demand for movement of people and goods in an efficient
manner.

Definition of Public Transportation
• Fleet carriers (e.g. vehicles, vessels, etc.) that are utilized

for moving people and goods with payment of a fee or
charge for the service provided.

Two General Types of Public Transport Services
• Fixed-Route Public Transport (Transit Service)
• Non-Fixed Route Public Transport

Route Types by Stopping Schedule
• Regular Service – vehicle stops at designated loading/

unloading areas
• Accelerated Service – vehicle skips several stops
• Express Service – vehicle stops at widely-spaced points,

usually at route ends.
13
Public Transport System Components
1. Carriers or Conveyances – the vehicles that carry the passengers.

2. Travel Ways – road space or railway tracks where public transport
vehicles operate.
3. Facilities for Picking and Dropping Passengers
• Stops – simple facilities or structures along road side (referring to road-
based transit service).
• Stations – buildings below, on or above ground with facilities for passenger
loading and unloading (referring to railway-based transit).
• Terminals – end stations of transit routes
• Transfer stations – stations which serve two or more intersecting routes for
passenger transfers.
14
Public Transport System Components (Con’t..)
4. Garage or Depot – buildings or areas for vehicle storage usually with
facilities for vehicle maintenance and repair.
5. Control System – a system of controlling vehicle movements on

travelways; it includes vehicle detection, communication and signal
equipment as well as any central control facility.
6. Power Supply System – only for electrically-powered modes; consists

of power substations, distribution wiring and other related equipment.
7. Transit Route or Line – a series of road or railway links connecting two
end points which are major activity centers where transit vehicles
regularly operate.
15
Public Transport Right-of-Way Levels
Level 1: Transit vehicles use road space along with all types of
vehicles; no exclusivity to transit vehicles; a mixed-traffic
situation.
Level 2: Transit vehicles are assigned a portion of the roadway for

their exclusive use (partial or full): the road space is
designated by lane markings, barriers or grade separation.
Level 3: Transit vehicles have exclusive use of travelway which is

fully controlled with no passenger access or vehicle access
except at crossings.
16
Transit System Performance Indicators
a) Frequency – number of departures per unit time
(say, per hour)
Headway – time interval between vehicle dispatches.
b) Average Travel Speed – speed of travel on the route which

passengers experience; it considers running time plus stopping/
delay time.
d) Reliability – availability of space that can be occupied; may be

measured in terms of passenger waiting time or adherence to
scheduled departure or arrival.
17
d) Safety – risk of being physically harmed; measured in terms of

accident rate.
f) Point Capacity – the maximum number of persons transit vehicles

can carry past a point along the route.
h) Productive or Distance Based Capacity – usually expressed in

terms of passenger kilometers offered by service.
j) Passenger Expense – price level passengers pay for the

service.
18
h) Utilization – the degree at which the capacity of the service is

utilized; may be expressed as the ratio of actual occupancy to
capacity or utilization rate (also known as load factor)
j) Quality of Service – the degree by which the service is enjoyed by

the users in terms of comfort, convenience, cleanliness, crew
attitude and aesthetics; this is an unquantifiable indicator.
l) Impact of the Environment – effects of the service on its

surroundings.
19
Hierarchy of Transit Modes
a) Low-Capacity Modes – taxis, jeepneys (20 passengers and less

per vehicle).
c) Medium Capacity Modes (passenger seating capacity of about

30 to 60 per vehicle).
• Regular Bus
• Trolley Bus (bus propelled by an electric motor where power is obtained from
two overhead wire).
• Streetcar or Tramway – electrically powered rail transit vehicle operating mostly
on streets.
20
Hierarchy of Transit Modes
c) High Capacity Modes (passenger seating capacity of more than

60 per vehicle).
- Semi Rapid Transit
• Semi Rapid Bus (SRB) – high performance bus on routes that include
substantial sections on exclusive right-of-ways.
• Light Rail Transit (LRT) – electrically propelled rail vehicles utilizing
predominantly reserved right-of-way.
- Rapid Transit
• Light Rail Rapid Transit
• Rubber-Tired Rapid Transit
• Rail Rapid Transit
