Continuous pickup and drop of in OTP2

[Alexander Menk]

Hi,

I am currently trying to extend OSM2GTFS to support continuous dropoff / pickup for minibuses / "informal" transport.

I had this kind of working as a proof-of-concept for OTPv1 but no I am trying on the latest OTP.

As per http://docs.opentripplanner.org/en/latest/sandbox/Flex/

otp-config.json

{
  "otpFeatures": {
    "FlexRouting": true
  }
}

router.config.json

{
  "flex": {
    "maxTransferDurationSeconds": 300
  }
}

does not seem to be enough.

I tried setting continuous_pickup,continuous_drop_off in stop_times to 0 as well as 3.

During the startup OTP prints

13:29:58.354 INFO (FlexTripsMapper.java:59) Create flex trips progress tracking complete. 9 done in 0s (1,800 per second).
13:29:58.354 INFO (FlexTripsMapper.java:60) Done creating flex trips. Created a total of 0 trips.

My problem is, that the routing makes passengers to walk 9 mins back, while they should just hop off earlier:

Alex

Hi Alexander,

continuous_pickup/dropoff is currently not supported by OTP2.

There is however an open PR that would need some polishing to get merged: https://github.com/opentripplanner/OpenTripPlanner/pull/3457

Several people have expressed interest in taking over from the original author but so far no-one has stepped forward.

Best.

None of us develops functionality that we do not need ourselves. In this issue, four companies have expressed an interest. We recommend that you contribute with development. If it is not possible, but you have the funds, it will be possible to ask in the community if there is anyone who would like to do this as an assignment.

We are now six organizations that actively contribute and collaborate well with development on OTP v2.x, in addition others contribute sporadically. We welcome more people. Further together.
