所谓“巴铁〞是一种完整依赖电力驱动的,大运量宽体高架电车,采纳高效低碳公共交通新技术,集城市迅速公交〔BRT〕与地铁长处于一身的交通工具。
简单粗暴地来说,能够直观看到的两大亮点:拥有地铁同样的大运力;还可以像巴士同样在地面上运转。
“巴铁〞如同一辆在公路上奔跑的宽体短型列车,时速可达每小时60公里,均匀时速那么为40公里。
“巴铁〞与汽车互不扰乱:“巴铁〞能够合用于城市主要交通干道路面的上空,且横跨两个车道,分上下两层,上层载客,下层镂空,镂空基层高度为2.1-2.2米,也就是说,不论是静止仍是行驶,只假如2米以下的汽车都能够自由同行。
行驶过程中,“巴铁〞和汽车互不扰乱。
缓解交通拥挤:一辆“巴铁〞能够容纳1200-1400 名乘客,这但是一般公交的几十倍!假如依据40辆40公里线路来回计算,“巴铁〞的日载客数约为40万人次。
估计“巴铁〞营运后,可直接减少现有主要交通干道35%以上的交通拥挤。
环保:由于它完整部是采纳的电力驱动,假如一辆“巴铁〞能够代替40辆一般的燃油公交大巴,那么每年就能够减少 864吨耗油,减少2684吨碳排放。

高考英语时事热点话题阅读热点18 交通强国与交通发展治理一、阅读理解1Urban Transportation in CanadaPublic transportation & Transit passesAll cities and most major towns in Canada have a public transportation system with one or more modes of transportation (bus, subway, train, etc.). The bus is the most common form of urban transportation in Canada. To use public transportation, you must purchase a ticket or a transit pass. Transit passes allow you unlimited use of public transportation for a specific period (one month or more). They are usually cheaper than buying many tickets if you plan to use public transportation often.Transportation for people with disabilitiesPublic transportation often has features to assist people with disabilities. In many cities and towns, there are also transportation services available specifically for people with limited mobility, such as specially equipped buses. You can find out about these services in the same way you would learn more about other public transportation options.Etiquette on public transportationWhen taking public transportation such as a bus or train, it is important to understand the unspoken rules of conduct in the shared space. Here are a few things to note:◆Be polite and respectful to others around you. For example, maintain an appropriate noise level when talking or making a phone call.◆If you are carrying a backpack or a large shoulder bag in a crowded public transit vehicle, keep it close to you, preferably at your feet to avoid hitting people with it as you walk by.◆Avoid pushing or touching others in order to make more room for yourself. Sometimes public transit can become very crowded, but it is important to keep calm and give others appropriate personal space.◆Have your proof of payment accessible in case you are asked to show it.1. What is the advantages of using transit passes over buying tickets?A. Lower costs.B. Safer trips.C. Longer service hours.D. More use of transport.2. How does the transportation system help people with disabilities?A. By offering fewer transportation options.B. By running special transport services.C. By limiting their mobility on city buses.D. By providing free rides in towns and cities.3. What is considered impolite on public transportation?A. Lowering your speaking voice.B. Placing backpacks at your feet.C. Having your proof of payment at hand.D. Staying close to other passengers.2William Phelps Eno (1858 - 1945 ) was an internationally recognized pioneer in traffic control and regulation. Named the "Father of Traffic Safety," 'Eno developed the first traffic plans for major cities including New York, London, and Paris, and is credited with helping to invent and popularize stop signs, taxi stands, pedestrian safety islands, and other traffic features commonly used throughout the world.Eno started out in his family's real estate business, but his interest in transportation led him to concentrate his spare time on traffic reform. In 1899, at the age of 40, he left real estate behind and devoted the rest of his life to put his concepts for orderly transportation into practice. His "Rules of the Road," adopted by New York City in 1909, became the world's first city traffic plan. He also wrote the first-ever manual of police traffic regulations.Eno gradually embraced multimodal transportation interests. He developed a plan for subways in New York City long before anyone else seriously considered the concept. He also became interested in maritime activities, supported railroad development, and started research in the 1920s on the future impact of avidtion(航空).Eno died in 1945 at the age of 86. Ironically, he never drove a car during his lifetime. The Father of Traffic Safety,an enthusiastic horseback rider,distrusted automobiles.In 1921, William P. Eno created a corporation whose purpose was to continue his lifetime's work—the promotion of safety on roads and highways. He sponsored the Foundation and began the work of attracting other transportation experts and specialists in order to provide a forum for unbiased discussions that would lead to improvements in the movement of people and goods.Since 1921, the Foundation has undergone many changes. What began as a Foundation for Highway Traffic Regulation has now become an independent, non-profit think tank that works in federal transportation policy and transportation leadership development. What has not changed is Eno's constant presence in the world oftransportation.4. For what is William Phelps Eno well-known to the whole world ?A. His pioneering work in ensuring traffic safety.B. His design of all traffic signs.C. His research over the diversity of transportation.D. His contribution in inventing cars.5. When was the first city traffic plan launched?A. In 1909.B. In 1921.C. In 1945.D. In 1899.6. Which of the following can best replace "ironically" in the fourth paragraph?A. Humorously.B. Simply.C. Unexpectedly.D. Fortunately.7. What role does the Foundation created by William play now?A. Promoting improvements in federal transportation.B. Sponsoring the poor who don't have cars.C. Hosting international forums for experts and specialists.D. Maintaining safety on roads and highways.3When my brother and I were young, my mom would take us on Transportation Days.It goes like this: You can’t take any means of transportation more than once. We would start from home, walking two blocks to the rail station. We’d take the train into the city center, then a bus, switching to the tram, then maybe a taxi. We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic di strict, but we didn’t like the way the horses were treated, so we never did. At the end of the day, we took the subway to our closest station, where Mom’s friend was waiting to give us a ride home—our first car ride of the day.The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around. She was born to be multimodal (多方式的). She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and, above all, a failure of confidence—the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels.Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore. New cities are just light-rail lines to be explored. And your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more tool in the toolbox—and often an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet.On Transportation Days, we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book or toy, but the transportation was the point. First, it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. As Igot older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How do I know when I need tickets, and where to get them? What track, what line, which direction, where’s the stop, and will I get wet when we go under the river?I’m writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didn’t try on our Transportation Days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all. My flight routed me through Philadelphia. My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport. She took a train to meet me.8. Which was forbidden by Mom on Transportation Days?A. Havinga car ride.B. Taking the train twice.C. Buying more than one toy.D. Touring the historic district.9. According to the writer, what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days?A. Building confidence in herself.B. Reducing her use of private cars.C. Developing her sense of direction.D. Giving her knowledge about vehicles.10. Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of (不赞成)?A. Airplane.B. Subway.C. Tram.D. Car.4Transportation shapes the world: along with communications, it forms a global net that connects person to person, city to city, and country to country. Transportation routes as well as vehicles are vital to the functioning and spread of every civilization.A country’s economy depends on reliable transportation. Citie s spread out along roads, rivers, and rails, so does information. Until the 20th century, these routes were confined to land or water. With the invention of powered flight, the air became an open road as well. The earliest way of traveling was undoubtedly by foot, and humans’ earliest means of transporting goods was carrying loads on their back or head. By 4000 B. C. , people were using domesticated animals for transport, a method greatly improved in some parts of the world by the invention of the wheel, probably first developed around 3500 B. C. .Until the 19th century, animals were the engines of land transportation. But with the invention of the steam engine and the internal combustion engine, railroads and automobiles revolutionized travel and trade. More than600 million cars and trucks travel the world today.Water has always been a fast and efficient mode of travel, and even today it remains a primary mover of heavy goods. The importance of waterways to human civilization can be seen on any map: almost all of the world’s major cities are located on coastlines or rivers. As early as 7000 B. C. , people were building canoes; long-distance ships were common by 3000 B. C. Until the 1950s, ships were the chief means of overseas passenger travel.Although the Montgolfier brothers took flight in balloons in the 18th century, air travel was not practical until the invention of powered flight by the Wright brothers in 1903. Within ten years, the commercial air transportation business had begun.Since the 20th century, high-speed rail has become another convenient way of travel. Today, two-thirds of the world’s high-speed rail track is in China, which measures nearly 30,000 kms, and this is expected to reach 38,000 kms by 2025.11. What is the passage mainly about?A. Technological advancements in transport over time.B. The influence of economic activities on transportation.C. The relationship between transportation and information flows.D. Reasons why land and sea transportation routes were important.12. Why does the writer mention the location of the world’s major cities?A. To encourage more people to move to big cities.B. To explain why boats and ships continue to be irreplaceable.C. To recommend water as a convenient and cheap form of transportation.D. To emphasize the contribution of water transport to human development.13. What can we learn about air travel?A. Balloons used to be one popular way of air travel.B. The Montgolfier brothers invented powered flight.C. The invention of airplanes helped popularize air travel.D. Air travel became widespread soon after the balloon was invented.14. What is the total length of high-speed rail track in the world today?A. About 57,000 kms.B. About 45,000 kms.C. About 38,000 kms.D. About 30,000 kms.5Traveling by bicycle is a very popular means of transportation throughout China. China has a huge population, and it is said that there is at least one bicycle for every two people within the company. Of course, many people in China ride bicycles pure ly for sport or exercise, but it’s also a much more commonly accepted means of everyday transportation, as compared to countries such as the United States.If you are living for a long period of time in China, chances are you will want to purchase your own bicycle so that you can use it whenever you want for transportation or just for the enjoyment of riding. Even if you don’t use a bicycle for everyday transportation, owning one can be a great way of enjoying some of the trails in the rural areas, just for fun. However, if you are just visiting China, renting a bicycle can be a more convenient choice. It is important to choose the correct bicycle for your use. You’ll find that in China, the one-speed style of bicycle is extremely popular. These bicycles are great if you want to ride around in the city to see the sights. They are quite comfortable and easy to ride. You can often rent a bicycle for an entire day for around $15.However, if you wish to ride on some of the rural paths, a mountain bike style would be a better choice. They are great for different kinds of road surfaces, providing for a safer ride. If you are planning to have a desire to tour and still be able to carry packages with you, then a touring bike would be the best choice. These are generally the most expensive to rent, but are extremely handy for carrying packages and even some of your luggage along with you.15. The opening paragraph probably tells us that .A. riding bicycle is very popular to Chinese peopleB. Chinese people use bicycles only for transportationC. Americans use bicycles only for sport and exerciseD. Riding bicycles is the main means of transportation16. If you are traveling in Beijin g you’d better .A. buy a bikeB. borrow a bikeC. steal a bikeD. rent a bike17. Which of the following is the advantage of the one-speed bicycle?A. It’s worth at least 15 dollarsB. You can’t ride it in the countryside.C. It is easy for you to travel in the cityD. You have to return it the next day.18. You would like to own a touring bike probably because .A. you have to ride on the road in the countrysideB. you have some packages to carry while travelingC. you want to enjoy the sights in the big citiesD. it is suitable for all kinds of road surfaces6Americans drove more miles in 2015 than any year since the U.S. government started keeping records 45 years ago. The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDT) recently reported that Americans drove a record of 3.148 trillion miles last year. In case you are wondering, that is enough to take 337 round trips from Earth to Pluto.There are a number of reasons why Americans are driving more miles. The social experts agree that the first is the price of gas, which has dropped to the level of the year 2004 in the past year. The American Automobile Association (AAA) said that the average price of gas was just $1.71 a gallon. That could be the lowest price since 2004.P.J. Sriraj, a director of the Urban Transportation Center at the University of Chicago, notes that the lower cost to fill up a car is just one reason. Another reason is that more Americans are back to work after the 2008 economic recession, and they drive to their jobs.Besides, more Americans have to travel a long distance every day between home and the office. There are a lot of Americans who must travel more than 45 miles per day for their jobs. And as for many, there is not enough public transportation.Because of the heavy traffic, roads are becoming more and more crowded. While modern cars are more fuel-efficient, the improvement is not enough to offset more cars on the road. “There is no doubt that driving more will make the air dirtier,” said P.J. Sriraj. And many Americans showed a great conce rn in a recent survey.19. The USDT report shows that in 2015 ________.A. Americans drove record-breaking milesB. Americans drove 3.148 trillion miles a dayC. Travel to Pluto was popular with AmericansD. The government began to record driving miles20. P.J. Sriraj thinks the reason why Americans drove more miles is ________.A. the low prices of gas and carsB. the 2008 economic depressionC. the Urban Transportation CenterD. more people’s coming back to work21. What makes many Americans worried?A. Having to drive far to work.B. Having no public transportation.C. Too many cars’ poll ution of the air.D. Small improvement of modern cars.22.

By making comparison.7The possibility of self-driving robot cars has often seeme d like a futurist’s dream, years away from coming into reality in the real world. Well, the future is apparently now. The California Department of Motor Vehicles began giving permits in April for companies to test truly self-driving cars on public roads. The state also cleared the way for companies to sell or rent out self-driving cars, and for companies to operate driverless taxi services. California, it should be noted, isn't leading the way here. Companies have been testing their cars in cities across the country. It's hard to predict when driverless cars will be everywhere on our roads. But however long it takes, the technology may change our transportation systems and our cities, for better or for worse, depending on how the transformation is managed.While much of the debate so far has been focused on the safety of driverless cars, policymakers should be talking more about how self-driving cars can help reduce traffic jams, cut emissions(排放)and offer more convenient and affordable choices to move around. The arrival of driverless cars is a chance to make sure that those cars are environmentally friendly and more shared.Do we want to copy or even worsen the traffic of today with driverless cars? Imagine a future where most adults own their self-driving cars. They accept long, slow journeys to and from work on crowded highways because they can work, entertain themselves or sleep on the ride. They take their driverless car to a date and set the empty car to circle the building to avoid paying for parking. Instead of walking a few blocks to pick up a child or the dry cleaning, they send the self-driving minibus. The convenience even leads fewer people to take public transport —an unwelcome side effect researchers have already found in ride-hailing(网约车)services. Policymakers shouldstart thinking now about how to make sure the appearance of driverless cars doesn't worsen the transportation system we have today. The coming technological development presents a chance for cities and states to develop transportation systems designed to move more people, and more affordably. The car of the future is coming. We just have to plan for it.23. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. Self-driving cars are not allowed in the real world.B.

Robot Cars on the Road8“Choo, Choo!” Here comes the Chunnel train. Get aboard if you want to learn more about this un derground transportation system. This is an unusual form of transportation, because it is a tunnel that trains travel through and not an actual form of transportation.The Chunnel is actually the English nickname for the Channel Tunnel. In French, it is called le tunnel sous la Manche. It is a rail tunnel beneath the English Channel at the Straits of Dover. It connects Cheriton in Kent, England with Sangatte in northern France. It is the second longest rail tunnel in the world.Did you know that the British and the French had a race whi1e they were building the Chunnel? The race was to see who could get to the middle of the tunnel first. The British won by a little bit. It took 15,000 workers over seven years to dig the tunnel. The tunnel was finished in 1994.The completed Chunnel cost about $ 21 billion. But it all paid off, because it became very popular, very quick. Millions of people use it. Now it is getting even more popular.There are three complete tunnels in the Chunnel. The two outside ones are the passenger trains. The small inner one is a guidance train. The guidance train is not used for transportation. Each track is exactly parallel to each other.There are four different train systems in the Chunnel. The Eurostar is a high speed passenger service that connects London, Paris, Brussels, and Lille. The Eurotunnel shuttle is a rail ferry service. These shuttles carry cars. These are railcars that allow drivers to drive their vehicles on and off. There are also two Eurotunnel goods service trains.Now you know more about the Chunnel. Everybody off, this is the last stop.27. The Channel Tunnel links ______ with _______.A. Dover; KentB. London; ParisC. Lille; BrusselsD. Cheriton; Sangatte28. Which of the following shows the structure of the tunnels in the Chunnel?A. B.C. D.29. The Eurotunnel shuttle is intended to carry _________.A. passengersB. drivers and their vehiclesC. goodsD. staff members of the Chunnel30. The text can most probably be __________.A. found in a textbookB. read in a magazineC. broadcast on a trainD. heard in a railway station二、完形填空Residents of urban areas often make use of public transportation on their way to school or the office. But when their final 31 isn’t near a bus stop or subway station, those folks have a problem. Transportation experts often 32 to this a s the “last mile” problem — finding a way to close the gap between public transportation stops and one’s destination.With the last mile problem in mind, the makers of the URB-E 33 a compact electric vehicle that weighs around 13 kilograms.

And since the URB-E can be carried 35 anywhere, it’s not as vulnerable to thieves as bikes are.Depending on usage, the URB-E can travel for 32 kilometers on a single 36 , reaching a top speed of 24 kilometers per hour. Although there are other vehicles attempting to 37 the last mile issue, the URB-E 38 for its ease of use, portability and affordable price. For the price of a nice laptop, you could have an URB-E to drive to the office.The URB-E is made from aircraft-grade aluminum and comes in two basic models: the URB-E Commuter and the URB-E GP. The main 39 between the two is that the Commuter model has two rear wheels while the GP has only one.

M TaslimulHaque and Md. Arifur RahmanDepartment of Computer Science, American International University-Bangladesh, Banani, Dhaka-1213,BangladeshAbstractA large number of people of a country uses public transport for their daily commute. Public transport users in a developed country get many facilities which is absent in a developing country like frequent transport, less traffic jam, maintaining time schedule, etc. In most of the developing countries, intercity public transports do not have any time schedule to arrive and leave in a stoppage and as a result, a person cannot manage his time accordingly which leads to waste valuable time. In this paper, we have proposed a system which is simple, cost-effective and will be able to save time for a public transport user that might be wasted due to bad timing. The system includes vehicle tracking system to trace the location of the transport and a website for the graphical view of the transport locations. A website has been developed with some dummy data to illustrate the proposed idea.Index Terms: Vehicle tracking, Global Positioning System (GPS), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Public transport, Save waiting time, Developing country.© 2016 Published by MECS Publisher.

In a developed country, most of the time government maintains public transport and people are very much bound to oblige government policies. The bus is one of the commonly used public transport. For a city, the government usually defines different routes and provides sufficient buses in different routes based on the demand so that people can use bus and travels effectively. One of the most important thing in bus transport is to manage the arrival time and leaving time in a particular stoppage. For other transport like metro or train, it can be easily maintained since their path is fixed and they face very few obstacles in their path like pedestrians, traffic signal, traffic jam, etc. To overcome these types of problems and manage bus transport schedule, most of the developed countries use Bus Schedule and also use a system to inform people the arrival time and leaving time * Corresponding author:E-mail address:in a particular stoppage at a particular time of the schedule. The stoppage has a system to inform people various information regarding the bus of different routes like arrival and leaving time for each route bus that will pass through it, how much time is left for the arrival of a particular bus, etc. Authors in the paper [1] have shown a method of displaying real-time public transport information at stoppages. Using that information, a person can predict about his bus arrival/departure time which saves a lot of time in many perspectives. Most of the developing countries do not have such facilities and very few who have little facilities about it is not enough to get a clear picture about the transport timing. In this paper, we have proposed a system which we can use in developing countries for bus transport with low cost to minimize the waiting time of bus users.In this introduction section, we have given a general idea about public transport system in developed and developing countries. Section 2 describes the problems of public transport system in a developing country for which we are going to propose a solution. A vehicle tracking system has been described in section 3 which is used in our proposed system. In section 4, some research works have been briefly narrated among which some are closely related to our works and based on some works our system has been proposed. Our proposed system’s details and an illustration of the proposed system are given in section 5 and 6 respectively. Finally, we have given a conclusion in section 7 which gives an overview of our work.2.Problem StatementPublic transport user faces a lot of problems in a developing country because of indiscipline. We can take bus transport system of Bangladesh for an example. Though there are very good bus services, still most of the bus services failed to maintain regularities. There are different types of bus services in Bangladesh. One type of bus runs only from district to district which people uses only to travel long distances. Another type of bus is used to travel short distances which usually runs within a district and it is mainly considered as public bus transport for daily use. Again usually there are two types of bus services in daily transport – local bus service and direct bus service. Local bus service takes as many passengers as it can and stops anywhere in its route. For a direct bus service, all stoppages are fixed from source to destination. And direct bus service only stops on those specified stoppages and takes passenger according to bus capacity. In this paper, we are taking into account only direct bus services. Because people who use bus transport daily tries to use a better service in terms of time and comfort and that is why generally uses direct bus services. When a person wants to go from one place to another, he first goes to the nearest stoppage to catch the bus. All passengers stand on a line so that they can get into the bus on a first come, first served basis. So after reaching the stoppage, he stands on the line for his expected bus. In a line people just wait for the bus and here the problem arises. People actually do not know when the bus will arrive and he will get into the bus and when he will reach his destination.People also faces another problem if there are more than one bus servi ces for the same destination. Let’s say there are two bus services - Bus A and Bus B. After coming into the stoppage, a passenger stands on the line for Bus A. But after some time Bus B arrives. At that time, he just cannot change the line from Bus A to Bus B and cannot get into Bus B. If he could know the arrival time for both Bus A and Bus B, he will stand on line for Bus B and could save some time.Again if a bus user can know the arrival time of his expected bus prior to going to the stoppage, it could also save a lot of his time. To demonstrate this, we can consider the scenario of a bus user who catches bus daily after his office. Let’s say it takes only 5 minutes to go to the stoppage for his bus. One day after office, he goes to the bus stoppage without knowing the bus arrival time. Unfortunately, the bus comes after 30 minutes after he reaches the stoppage. So it takes about 35 minutes to get into the bus after he left his office. But if he could know that the bus is coming after approximately 30 minutes then probably he would not go to the stoppage at that time. In that case, since he can know the approximate bus time of arriving, he will leave office just about 10 minutes before the bus will come to the stoppage. It will take 5 minutes to go to the stoppage and after approximately 5 minutes he will get the bus. Finally, it will take total about 10 minutes to catch his bus after he left the office. So if we can provide a user’s expected bus location and distance information from the stoppage which will help to guess the approximate arrival time of his bus then surely it will reduce his waiting time.In this paper, we are going to propose a system which will help to solve these problems for daily bus users in a developing country. Our idea is to install a vehicle tracking device in every bus of a bus service. Using this device, we will track a bus running under a particular bus service. Next, we will provide a graphical view through which a bus user will know about a bus location and its distance to the stoppage where the user will be waiting. And using this information, he will be able to predict about his timing, bus timing and also which bus service he should take.3.Vehicle Tracking DeviceTo trace a bus, we will need a device which can collect location information of the bus and send this information to a server. Global Positioning System (GPS) [2] can be used to trace the location of any object. GPS device will collect the location information of a bus such as latitude and longitude information from the satellite. And General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) [3] can be used for internet connection which will send bus location information to a server. There will be a server which will receive bus location information sent by the tracking device. Then this information will be used for the graphical view of the bus location for the bus user.4.Related WorkA very close work has been done in [4]. Authors in this paper have shown that a vehicle location can be displayed on Google map by setting up a device which consists of a microcontroller, GPS, and GPRS. They have also shown vehicle location on the map in two different time which indicates the direction of the vehicle.A similar technique has been used in the paper [5] for real-time vehicle tracking. But authors here have only shown the current location of the vehicle on Google map along with some other information at a particular time. Authors in the paper [6] have shown that the similar technique can be used for continuous vehicle tracking at real-time. Their system periodically collects location information and after a certain time it sends the data and that data is shown on the G oogle map to show vehicle locations. Their system also can show vehicle’s location at real-time.Our proposed method uses the same technique authors have shown in papers [4] [5] [6] for tracking the vehicle. By tracking vehicle, we want to show bus locations of a bus service on a map for a particular route which will also show all stoppage locations.Lots of work has been done and also going on based on vehicle tracking. There are also some papers which have worked on time scheduling of public transport [7] [8] [1]. But very few works have been done regarding this targeting a developing country. In our best knowledge, no system has been proposed or developed for public transport in a developing country for effectively managing transport timing or to save users waiting time at stoppages. The process followed by a developed country to manage public transport timing is somehow always not feasible in a developing country because of different constraints such as traffic jam, lack of transport, etc. and also comparatively much expensive. That is why our proposed method will be a very good solution in a developing country for saving bus users waiting time.5.Proposed MethodAs we said our proposed method works based on tracking bus using GPS which is one of the most popular methods for tracking objects and there will be a graphical view which will help a user to visualize bus locations. Steps of our proposed method are as following:∙Vehicle tracking device will be installed on each bus that runs on a particular route of a bus service.∙The tracking device will periodically collect bus location information using GPS and send it to the server using GPRS.∙The server will store location information of all buses running on a particular route sent by their tracking devices. This will also store the time information each time it receives a bus location information. So fora particular bus, we will have its location information for a consecutive time which will also help us totrace its direction.∙For a graphical view, there will be a website which will show the locations of all buses on a map which will give a clear picture about the distance between a bus and a particular stoppage. This will also show the bus direction. Only bus location is not that much helpful if we do not know the direction of the bus because a bus may go in any direction of the route. So if we do not know the direction of a bus then we will not know either the bus is arriving or leaving a stoppage.Fig.1. Steps of Our Proposed MethodThe direction of a bus can be determined by using its location information at two different times. Fig.2 shows how the direction can be determined. It shows that at time 14:20 the bus is in a different location from where it was at 14:15. So by using the latitude and longitude information at these two time, we can determine its direction and can say that it is heading towards stoppage at Location B.Fig.2. Determining Bus Direction using Location Information at Two Different Time6.Proposed System IllustrationWe are going to illustrate our proposed idea using some sample scenarios, images and a website that we have developed. To do this, we are considering that we have vehicle tracking devices installed on buses running on a route. Those devices periodically send bus location information to the server. The server has a database to store bus location information. Time information is also saved along with location so that we can trace the direction of a bus where it is heading.A website has been developed and dummy data has been saved on the database to illustrate our idea. This website is not a final version and is designed at a very basic level. Through the website, the user will select thebus service which has a route to go to the destination for the user. After selecting the route, the user will select in which direction he wants to go. Then the system will show a map (Google map has been used) where the road of the route from source to destination will be highlighted with a color. On the highlighted route, all stoppages of the route will be shown using a stoppage icon. And all buses will be shown on the route according to their locations using bus icon. In the map, we do not need to show the direction of the bus where it is going as the map will show only those buses which are going in the direction that the user has selected and the buses going in the opposite direction will not be shown. Using the information shown on the map – route, source, destination, stoppage and buses location, the user will be able to estimate his timing to go to his expected stoppage.Fig.3. Snapshot of Our System Showing the Road (Highlighted Road with Pink Color) of the Selected Route, Stoppages (Yellow Bus Stoppage Icons) and a Bus Location with Additional Information (White Bus Icon)If there are multiple bus services for the same route on the same stoppage location then using this system user can also decide which bus service he should catch that will save his time. To do this, the user will check bus locations of all bus services that go to the destination where he needs to go. Then based on the information that our system will show, the user will select the bus service that appears to be the best option to him. Let’s assume that a user is in a location C. He wants to go to Location B. In location C, two bus services Bus1 and Bus2 have their stoppage from where they go to location B. Website can show bus location information for both Bus1 and Bus2. Now standing at location C, the user will look on the website to check bus locations. If he finds that the Bus1 is nearer to location C than Bus2 then he will stand on the line for Bus1. This will save time and energy for the user since he will be able to catch the bus in earliest possible time. This scenario has been demonstrated in Fig.4.Fig.4. Illustrating the Scenario for Selecting a Bus Line by a User to Wait If He Has Multiple Options7.ConclusionIn this paper, we have proposed a system through which a bus user in a developing country can save a lot of time in his daily life. Though we have shown our technique using bus transport which is a public transport from the perspective of Bangladesh transport system, we believe with minor modification this technique can be used in other public transport as well to serve the same purpose. Also, a mobile phone application can be developed with the same features. Since nowadays almost everyone has a smartphone with an internet connection, a user will be able to easily check information on his phone using that application. This will be a more convenient and interactive solution.References[1]K. Dziekan and K.
