    Performance Evaluation of Premium Services in Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC)
    (2016) Hanumappa, D.; Ramachandran, P.; Sitharam, T.G.; Lakshamana, S.; Mulangi, R.H.
    In this paper we are measuring the performance of Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) specifically aiming at premium bus services of BMTC operating in Bangalore city. The performance measurement of premium bus services is done using two different approaches. Ratios were computed considering different operational and financial indicators and these ratios are benchmarked by considering the best performing units as the target to compare the bus depots performance. Further we studied the performance of bus depots using data envelopment analysis (DEA). Our analysis indicated that most of the depots are efficient where as depot 13 have significant opportunities for improvements. � 2016 The Authors.

    Traffic characteristics evaluation and traffic management measures: A case study of Dharwad city
    (Bentham Science Publishers B.V. P.O. Box 294 Bussum 1400 AG, 2018) Hanumappa, D.; Mulangi, R.H.; Kudachimath, N.S.
    Traffic problems in the urban areas are increasing at a rapid rate. Engineers, planners or the policymakers are having a tough time in dealing with their multiple constraints for getting the desired solution. Some of the main transportation planning problems are mixed traffic plying on the roads, inadequate parking areas, increasing number of vehicles and road users, the unbalanced pattern of land use with obsolete road system, increasing number of road facilities and environmental pollution. Since in India most of the cities are unplanned, we are only left with an option management of existing infrastructure. In this paper, one such case study is presented in which a detailed traffic management for the city of Dharwad is carried out. © 2018 Hanumappa et al.
