Abstract:
Too many bus stops are indiscriminately installed from an intersection. This study aims to
suggest the most efficient distance that supports bus stop operations taking traffic safety into
account. In order to estimate the proper bus stop location distance to an intersection, this study
collected data of vehicle vs. vehicle and pedestrian vs. vehicle accidents that occurred near bus
stops. Many variables such as traffic volume and bus stop location were also included. This
data was then used to conduct correlation analysis to assess if any relationship existed between
traffic accidents and bus stop location. These results helped in developing a traffic accident
prediction model which divided vehicle vs. vehicle accidents, and pedestrian vs. vehicle
accidents. The objective function equation was derived from these models that minimized the
total number of traffic accidents in order to estimate the proper bus stop location distance to the
intersection curb through the optimization technique.
