Method of Forming Possible Standard Transport and Logistics Schemes for Passenger Transportation on Intercity and Suburban Routes to Determine the Trip Time

Abstract

The article discusses possible transport and logistics schemes for a «door-to-door» passenger trip on intercity and suburban routes in the riverine regions by hovercraft. An analysis of a number of research works of Russian scientists and English-language sources in the field of passenger transport quality has been carried out, which has shown that the study of transport and logistics schemes for a passenger’s trip concerning factors such as distance, cost, travel time according to any presented typical «door-to-door» scheme on bus routes and hovercraft are not found on intercity and suburban routes in the riverine regions. The author proposes typical transport and logistics schemes for passenger trips in alternative routes and an analytical method for developing the technological process of passenger trips on intercity and suburban routes by road and river transport with an algorithm for determining time costs that can be used in transport organizations.
