Abstract:Transit Operations Decision Support Systems (TODSS) are systems designed to support dispatchers and others in real-time operations management in response to incidents, special events, and other changing conditions in order to improve operating speeds, reduce passenger wait times, and restore service when disruptions occur. In 2003, as part of a joint Federal Transit Administration and Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office effort, the transit industry developed core functional requirements for service disruption identification and provision of restoration options for TODSS. In 2006, Pace Suburban Bus was selected to lead a demonstration project to develop and evaluate a prototype TODSS and to validate the TODSS core functional requirements. This report documents the evaluation of the TODSS demonstration project with respect to the core requirements and impacts of TODSS, and includes recommended changes and lessons learned for the transit industry to better understand the TODSS core requirements for future implementations.
