Service Planning
Easily design and optimize your entire transit network with detailed, data-driven planning capabilities.
Network Design
Build a complete and accurate representation of your transport network
Design, maintain, and optimize every element of your public transport network from a single environment. Model routes, stops, depots, terminals, deadheads, charging infrastructure, and passenger connections while keeping network data accurate and up to date. The MAIOR Suite enables planners to evaluate network changes, improve multimodal integration, and support both conventional and electric fleets.
✔ Enhanced with
a shortest path calculation tool.
Features:
• Centralized management of routes, stops, depots, terminals, and network assets.
• Multimodal planning for bus, rail, tram, metro, and light rail networks.
• Passenger transfer and connection planning.
• What-if scenario evaluation and network simulation.
• Charging infrastructure design for electric bus operations.
Timetable Design
Deliver reliable timetables that balance passenger demand and operational efficiency
Create optimized timetables using accurate running times, service frequency targets, vehicle availability, and operational constraints. Synchronize routes, protect passenger connections, and evaluate alternative service scenarios to identify the most efficient operating strategy. For electric fleets, timetable planning also considers vehicle autonomy, energy consumption, and charging requirements.
✔ Enhanced with
a powerful multiline timetable optimization algorithm.
Features:
• Frequency and headway optimization.
• Multi-line timetable optimization.
• Route synchronization and passenger connection protection.
• Vehicle recovery time and operational constraint management.
• Electric vehicle autonomy and charging-aware planning.
• What-if analysis to compare service scenarios and resource requirements.
Running Time Analysis
Turn operational data into more reliable service planning
Leverage CAD/AVL and ITS data to calculate realistic running times and dwell times throughout the day. By understanding actual traffic conditions and operational patterns, planners can improve timetable accuracy, enhance on-time performance, and continuously refine service planning decisions using real-world data.
✔ Enhanced with
a driving times optimization algorithm.
Features:
• Automated running time calculation using historical operational data.
• Time-band management for peak and off-peak operations.
• Dwell time analysis and optimization.
• One-click timetable updates based on new running-time calculations.
• Service quality and punctuality improvement through data-driven planning.
