Identification of Speed Potential in the Context of Tram Traffic Efficiency

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The article presents such a criterion for evaluating tram traffic efficiency as the speed regime utilization coefficient (SRUC). The limitations of existing evaluation methods are analyzed: fragmentation, static nature, and insufficient detail of speed characteristics. A mathematical calculation model has been developed taking into account technical, infrastructural, and operational factors. The advantages are shown: normalized indicator, identification of efficiency reserves, possibility of bottleneck diagnostics. Practical application of SRUC opens new opportunities for tram system optimization.
