Small doubt : Transit buses vs usual buses & non-fixed schedule transits

[Venktesh Pandey]

Hi all,

We have a predefined vehicle type with USE code 'BUS' (veh type=2, veh subtype=0).

So wanted to ask if we already have specified the schedule of transit buses(headway and offset in different time-bins for all routes), do we also include their trip details in separate trip file used in Converttrips with veh type code 2?

Or are those for non-transit buses observed on network?

If not, can I use specifying in ConvertTrips, a means to model transit services which don't follow a fixed schedule in my network?

Else how do I model non-fixed schedule transits?

Thanks for help

Sorry I meant vehtype=4 and vehsubtype=0 at both references.

Also I couldn't find what was unit of HEADWAY_x in Route_header file. Is it minutes or seconds?

Thanks

I believe, the unit is Minute.

From Transit Network how to document

Time periods are defined in the TransitNet control file. OFFSET_x is the number of minutes between the beginning of the time period “x” and the first run of the route in that time period. You can define the optional field TTIME to enter the route travel time in minutes from start to end.
