“…Of particular significance for approaching to solve this problem are the usage of PT and the implementation of various advanced control measures that can improve the quality of overall public transport system. Public Transport Management Systems (PTMS) are systems that use information and communication technologies in order to increase efficiency and safety of PT systems and to provide the PT users with greater access to information on system operations [9].…”

Overall satisfaction is an emotional response to a perceived discrepancy between expectations and perceptions. Overall satisfaction is more of a holistic affective construct after a service delivery experience, while transaction-specific satisfaction refers to attribute-based cognitive evaluation of service encounters. The authors investigated which particular attributes of public transport service drive satisfaction of customers, contributing to public transport becoming more sustainable. The questionnaire used in this research was constructed based on Benchmarking in European Service of Public Transport (BEST). The respondents belonged to the group of younger users of public transport services. Correlation analysis, factor analysis, and regression analysis were used in data processing and interpretation. Results obtained from the research show that young people emphasize the importance of on-line information, comfort, and prices of the public transportation. This paper not only provides insight into expectations of public transport users, but also investigated the potential decrease in CO2 and PM emissions when private vehicles are substituted with the public transport.

“…A considerable amount of literature has been published on TSP strategies, a lot of which uses PTV Vissim to investigate this matter (e.g. [25, 26, 28, 29, 31]). The intersection under review differs from other case studies in several aspects.…”

“…A certain phase of the signal cycle can be skipped when there is no traffic load in the respective lane. In that case, green light for an approaching public transportation vehicle may be turned on, thus reducing the public transportation vehicle delay (Vujic, 2015). After PT vehicle detection, the system calculates the anticipated time of vehicle arrival at the signalized intersection.…”

The problem of traffic congestion is particularly acute in urban areas in which the possibilities for the physical increase of capacities are limited or nonexistent. Traffic congestion has a direct impact on the emission, energy efficiency and fuel consumption of personal vehicles. Several projects in the European Union are focused on solving this problem (both at the physical level – automotive industry, as well as at the traffic management level). This paper explores the possibility of the implementation of advanced traffic control systems in urban areas in which driving behavior involves a multitude of stopand-go actions, lower speeds in lower vehicle gears. Since this type of driving behavior affects vehicle fuel consumption and emission, relevant evaluation parameters were defined (queue length, average vehicle speed, etc.). A demonstration corridor in the city of Zagreb was chosen and a simulation model based on the traffic data collected in real traffic situations developed. The basis for further research is laid down to allow the application of the proposed model and adaptive traffic control algorithms to the greater urban traffic network.
