  1. Coding Transit Itineraries Frank Milthorpe Transport and Population Data Centre

  2. Objective With the availability of electronic public transport time data how do you convert this into Emme/2 itineraries ?

  3. Issues • Full detail vs simplification • Consistency between base year and future year • Transparency in the process • Emme/2 has a number of features which can assist with graphic display

  4. Timetable Plots • Using module 6.26 • Itineraries input with data to facilitate the timetable plots • Start time (off-set) in UT field • Pattern coded in UT field • Time between stops in US field • Master route pattern for y axis

  5. Route Plots • Using module 2.13 option 6 (user defined data) • Required extensive use of module 2.41 (network calculator) • Separate calculations for nodes and links

  6. Multiple pattern plots • Similar process to route plots • Summary data written in customised plot heading • Could extend to use multiple layers (currently only using single layer).

  7. Observations • Route plot macro useful for checking itineraries • Network calculator in conjunction with 2.13 can used to generate “customised” plots
