Abstract
Intelligent Transport Systems in urban conditions is one of the solutions to reduce
congestion of vehicles and the amount of harmful emissions. An important component of ITS is the
assessment of the duration of a public transport trip. It is necessary to focus on the study of the
duration of the bus (the duration of traffic between stops and the dwelling time). In this paper, the
authors focused on determining the dependence of the duration of buses at stops depending on the
demand of passengers. The dwelling time of buses at stops is not considered independent of the
duration of the journey. The duration of the bus is the periods of time when the buses wait at the
stops, and the travel time, which is the duration of the bus between each two stops. The study was
conducted on the bus route #3A in Lviv. To determine the dwelling time of the bus at stops, it is
necessary to take into account information about passengers and the trajectory of buses. The
obtained data can increase the accuracy of forecasting in different traffic situations in comparison
with the most modern methods.
