“…The experiment [17] expounds upon a scientific model of the public transport system, including buses, trams, and local trains, explaining emergencies in the sector. According to the studies [18,19], the researchers and companies work on new applications of intelligent transport systems, emphasizing the integrity of transport connectivity, as it has a synergic effect on assessing the quality ratios [20]. In our study, we also involved the consumer demand for travels.…”

The article suggests a system dynamics model for estimating the demand for public transport. Traditional scientific and technical transport modeling approaches involve coherent systems, meticulously considering other impactful variables for transport modeling. The vastness of the variables and their combinations hinder us from grasping all possible system interactions. This research aims at proposing a model that comprises decisive factors in relation to the supply and demand in various modes of transport, designing likely scenarios of the transport system development in a specific transport territory. The model uses system dynamics tools to explore the interaction between individual system elements and transport subsystems. A wise choice of crucial system elements, well-adjusted relationships and behavior settings, as well as system dynamics tools, allow for a considerable simplification of an otherwise complex system. The article works with a principle of stock and flow diagrams for forecasting supply and demand in public transport. We take into consideration the implementation of a ‘demand index’ in public and car passenger transport with a subsequent comparison. This innovative approach monitors the development of a regional or municipal transport system while assessing its sustainability. Suggested demand indexes may serve as indicators for a sustainable municipal system. The suggested model reflects data from the South Bohemian region in the Czech Republic and may involve other elements and indicators of a sustainable transport system.

“…Crescenzi et al assessed the relationship between government regional quality and profits of different types of road infrastructure in the European Union (EU) region and concluded that although the government preferred highways, the benefits were lower than that of secondary roads [10]. Kalra et al conducted an empirical analysis on the relationship between transport infrastructure and economic growth in India and found that there was both a short-term and a two-way causal relationship between GDP and transport infrastructure [11]. Mohmand et al believed that the development of transport infrastructure could directly or indirectly affect economic growth [12].…”

Infrastructure construction results in transportation cost and regional economy changes. Based on the exogenous infrastructure change of a county highway opening as a natural experiment, this paper uses the spatial difference-in-differences (DID) model to analyze the impact of highway construction in three different provinces of China from 2004 to 2017. It was proved that highway connectivity had no significant or negative impact on the economy of the counties in three provinces that the highway passes through. In addition, highway connectivity was claimed to have obvious spatial spillover effects, which could promote the economic development of the whole region. For counties belonging to provinces in different regions and stages of economic development, we establish a spatial DID model that integrates time and space dimensions to study the impact of expressways on county economic development, to make up for the traditional DID model’s dependence on SUTVA assumptions, and to obtain spatial spillover effects.

“…In publication [33], the methodology for examining the connectivity on a transport infrastructure, where the transport policy is applied to the specific case study regarding the high-speed rail, is the research topic in regard to transport infrastructure. In [34,35], a stability simulation analysis for intercity railways is presented, and in [36][37][38], new technologies for intelligent transport systems improving the transport connection quality on a certain network are described and analyzed.…”

Approach Methodology for Comprehensive Assessing the Public Passenger Transport Timetable Performances at a Regional Scale

et al. 2019

The paper is focused on the issue of assessing the quality of transport connectivity on a predesignated transport network in regular public passenger transport at a regional scale. Comprehensively, using the defined key qualitative indicators, it assesses the performance of passenger transport timetables, in both ways of ex ante, as well as ex post. Existing methodologies in a given issue have only dealt with a partial assessment of the transport connectivity quality on specific transport network. However, unlike them, the objective of this manuscript was to propose a new unified methodology to assess the passenger transport timetables in terms of transport connectivity, and subsequently to complexly evaluate the whole predesignated regional transport network from a qualitative point of view. In this paper, the proposed methodology is demonstrated on a particular regional transport network, specifically an existing railway network in the Slovak Republic, whereby the data related to regional passenger transport timetables for a certain day is an input factor. The purpose of this study was to design and verify a draft methodological procedure to assess the quality of transport connectivity on a certain transport network, thus moving towards more effective evaluation of integrated transport systems. Its practical applicability consists in comparison of existing and proposed timetables, which is considered one of the crucial factors in terms of public passenger transport quality.Sustainability 2019, 11, 3532 2 of 18 in the Slovak Republic is poor, in particular in regard to demands placed on it. Regional differences in the quality of transport network, which has far-reaching consequences in terms of increasing economic and social disparities among individual parts of the country, are also apparent [4][5][6][7]. Previous research studies [8][9][10][11][12] have confirmed that the quality of transport infrastructure is considered a crucial element which makes decisions about the foreign investment allocation very often. The offered quality of transport network connectivity is considerably related to services provided within transport sector [4].The main task of transport is to satisfy the customers' requirements for quality, flexible, fast, and safe transportation of passengers and cargo [1,3]. Quality is differently perceived from the transport user [12], transport services provider, or transport organizer point of view, but also from the society-wide point of view. This is caused due to the fact that assessing the quality of transport network connectivity is performed in a non-systematic manner, regardless of the interaction of carried passengers with traffic or transport system [12,13]. Customers' needs and expectations are monitored by establishing procedures in accordance with the Regulation (EC) No 1371/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2007 on rail passengers' rights and obligations [14][15][16].Based on the previous research studies [17][18][19][20][21], it can be declared that on...
