Examples 2.0d - Lollipop route

Summary

Same stops covered by two different routes in different directions in a partial lollipop..

  • Lollipop route, with two journeys proceeding round the loop in opposite directions (In this example neither route completes the full lollipop course).
  • Two services run by two different operators, sharing a line label.
  • Two different route with the same line label
  • More than one operator.
  • Additional Operational Times.
  • Express stopping pattern - "Pass" activity where the bus does not stop.
  • Use of Stop Sequence Numbers
  • Use of Dynamic destination headings.
  • Reuse of shared sections.
  • Reuse of VehicleJourney Links
  • Layover Point

The XML Representation

XML Document

The detailed map below shows the sections and stop sequences used.

  • There are two Serviceinstances whose Lines are labelled to appear to the public as the same:
    • S1 , which has two Line instances; L1 , labelled ' L1A', and L2, labelled 'L1B' . S1 is run by Operator 'ACO '.
    • S2 which has Line L3 also labelled 'L1B' . S2 is run by Operator 'RED '.
  • There are three RouteSectioninstances;
    • RS1: 'Bus Station' to 'Pulford' , containing RouteLink instances RL1 to RL5 .
    • RS2: 'Pulford ' to 'School ' via 'Exchange ', containing RouteLink instances RL6 and RL7 .
    • RS3: 'Pulford ' to 'Exchange' via 'School ', containing RouteLink instances RL8 and RL9.
  • There are two Routeinstances:
    • R1: 'Bus Station to School (via Exchange)' , containing RS1 and RS2.
    • R2: 'Bus Station to Exchange (via School)' , containing RS1 and RS3.
  • There are three corresponding JourneyPatternSection instances, JS1, JS2 and JS3, one for each route section.
  • S1 has two JourneyPatterninstances:
    • JP1: Following Route R1, with sections JS1 and JS2 , passing 'Pulford' without stopping.
    • JP2: Following Route R2, with sections JS1 and JS3 .
  • S2 has one JourneyPattern instance:
    • JP3: Also f ollowing Route R2, with sections JS1 and JS3 , passing ' Pulford' without stopping.
  • There are five VehicleJourneyinstances, one for each column
  • S1 has four VehicleJourneyinstances:
    • VJ1: following JourneyPattern JP1 over Route R1, 'Bus Station to School (via Exchange)' , as Line 'L1B', passing ' High Street' and 'Robridge ', without stopping. Short working of the second section, i.e.. termination at Exchange, is indicated by a dead run.
    • VJ2: also following JourneyPattern JP1 over Route R1, 'Bus Station to School (via Exchange)' but as Line 'L1A', passing ' High Street', ' Egham' and ' Pulford' without stopping.
    • VJ3: reuses the timing links of VJ1, and so also follows JourneyPattern JP1 over Route R1, 'Bus Station to School (via Exchange)' .
    • VJ5: reuses the timingg links of VJ1, and so also follows JourneyPattern JP1 over Route R1, 'Bus Station to School (via Exchange)' .
  • S2 has one VehicleJourneyinstance:
    • VJ4: following JourneyPattern JP2 over Route R2, 'Bus Station to Exchange (via School)' , as Line L3 , which has the same label of 'L1B' as S1/L2 , although it actually goes round the last two stops in a different sequence from the other journeys with the same label, and so needs a different underlying Route. VJ4 passes 'Robridge ', without stopping.
