Analysis of Transit Service Improvements in the City of Zagreb

As a mass transit mode, public transport represents the backbone of sustainable urban mobility in highly-populated cities. In order to achieve modal shift from private car to public transport among city trips, transit service has to be attractive for passengers. In this manner, the operating speed, which highly depends on public transport priority, becomes an important indicator of public transport attractiveness. The tram priority research conducted in this paper is based on the available public transport data for the tram network of the City of Zagreb, such that two hypothetical tram priority scenarios were set. The results, in form of operating speed increase and savings in passenger spaces, show the possibilities for improvements while the operating capacity remains the same ; all this is impacting the passenger travel time and costs for the operator as well as the local community of the City of Zagreb.
