Towards a general microeconomic model for the operation of public transport

S Jara-Díaz, A Gschwender - Transport Reviews, 2003 - Taylor & Francis
<p>After Vickrey's view, Mohring constructed a microeconomic model to determine the
optimal frequency of buses serving a corridor with fixed demand. The main result was that …

Congestion pricing, transit subsidies and dedicated bus lanes: Efficient and practical solutions to congestion

LJ Basso, CA Guevara, A Gschwender, M Fuster - Transport Policy, 2011 - Elsevier
We analyze urban congestion management policies through numerical analysis of a simple
model that: allows users to choose between car, bus or an outside option (biking); consider …

Commercial bus speed diagnosis based on GPS-monitored data

CE Cortés, J Gibson, A Gschwender… - … Research Part C …, 2011 - Elsevier
Commercial bus speed is a key factor in the operation of public transport systems because it
represents a direct measure of the quality of service provided to users and also …

The effect of financial constraints on the optimal design of public transport services

SR Jara-Díaz, A Gschwender - Transportation, 2009 - Springer
Recent experience with the design of bus services in Santiago, Chile, seems to confirm
Jansson's (1980) assertion regarding observed planned bus frequency and size being too low …

Transantiago: A tale of two cities

JC Muñoz, A Gschwender - Research in Transportation Economics, 2008 - Elsevier
The Chilean government decided to modernize Santiago's entire public transport system,
integrating the underground and the private bus networks based on a structure of trunk and …

Using smart card and GPS data for policy and planning: The case of Transantiago

A Gschwender, M Munizaga, C Simonetti - Research in Transportation …, 2016 - Elsevier
The introduction in 2007 of a new public transport system in Santiago, Chile, brought to us
an unexpected gift: the availability of Big Data; massive amounts of passive data obtained …

Optimal fleet size, frequencies and vehicle capacities considering peak and off-peak periods in public transport

S Jara-Díaz, A Fielbaum, A Gschwender - Transportation Research Part A …, 2017 - Elsevier
The fleet for surface transit in urban areas - number of buses and vehicle size - is usually
determined by the characteristics of demand during the peak period, adjusting frequencies for …

From the single line model to the spatial structure of transit services: corridors or direct?

SR Jara-Díaz, A Gschwender - Journal of Transport Economics …, 2003 - ingentaconnect.com
The microeconomic analysis of public transportation involves the optimisation of all resources,
both users'and operators'. This has been applied to optimise frequency and fleet size for …

Beyond the Mohring effect: Scale economies induced by transit lines structures design

A Fielbaum, S Jara-Diaz, A Gschwender - Economics of Transportation, 2020 - Elsevier
In this paper we study how the spatial arrangement of transit lines (lines structure) influences
scale economies in public transport. First we show that the degree of scale economies (DSE…
