Abstract

The development of urban public transport systems today has focused on increasing their operability, trying to minimize travel times and mobilize the greatest number of users by increasing operational speed, renewing the vehicle fleet, and increasing frequencies, among others. However, in addition to restructuring the operating distance and the location of the bus stops, this process of increasing operational capacity has paid little attention to the people's perception of these stop systems’ location and coverage. This causes, largely, users’ apathy to take advantage of the system, promoting the use of other means of transport, or in the least cases, to make stops within the system in unauthorized locations.

Considering the above, the aim of this research is to analyze the overage variation of bus-stop sets, based on the perception of users in normal and eager conditions, through the application of an analysis of population and zonal coverage, in which physical and operational variables of interest are considered, complemented with geostatistical models and digital tools that allow implementing a set of bus stops creating an inclusive environment with a broader vision of the ideal conditions for the definition of bus-stop sets. Within the research process, it is necessary to structure a statistical sampling, which allows for characterizing the population of public transport systems. Therefore, Manizales, the capital of the department of Caldas − Colombia, through its 12 district clusters and 378,000 inhabitants, is taken as a focus of study. However, due to the conurbation agreement with the municipality of Villamaría, the inclusion of its urban framework is carried out, resulting in a total population of 424,300 inhabitants.

通过市民感知研究对公共交通巴士站进行空间覆盖分析。案例研究:哥伦比亚马尼萨莱斯
如今,城市公共交通系统的发展主要集中在提高其可操作性上,通过提高运行速度、更新车队和增加班次等方式,尽量缩短乘客的出行时间,动员最大多数的乘客。然而,在提高运营能力的过程中,除了调整公交站点的运营距离和位置外,很少关注人们对这些站点系统的位置和覆盖范围的看法。这在很大程度上造成了用户对利用该系统的冷漠,促进了其他交通工具的使用,或至少在未经许可的情况下,在该系统内停靠站点。考虑到上述情况,本研究的目的是根据用户在正常和急切条件下的感受,通过对人口和区域覆盖率的分析,分析公交站点设置的超龄变化,其中考虑了相关的物理和运行变量,并辅以地理统计模型和数字工具,从而实现公交站点的设置,创造一个包容性的环境,为公交站点设置的理想条件提供更广阔的视野。在研究过程中,有必要进行统计抽样,以确定公共交通系统人口的特征。因此,哥伦比亚卡尔达斯省首府马尼萨莱斯(Manizales)通过其 12 个地区集群和 37.8 万居民被作为研究重点。不过,由于与比利亚玛丽亚市签订了市郊协议,因此将其城市框架也包括在内,从而得出总人口为 424 300 人的结果。
