At the bottom of the rectangle for each running time period is a calculated value called feasibility; it represents the percentage of observed trips in the running time period whose running time was less than or equal to the current allowed time. 5.1.2 Suggesting New Running Times and Running Time Periods In the graph shown in Figure 9, a set of allowed times and running time periods suggested automatically by the program are shown and analyzed.

Schedule makers can bring this kind of knowledge into the design process; they therefore need the flexibility to modify suggested running times and have the program analyze what will happen. 5.2 Determining Running Time Profiles Using the Passing Moments Method Once running times for a given route (or route segment)

Running time periods and running times accepted in the homogeneous periods analysis are stored in memory and listed in a menu, so that users can choose them one at a time to create running time profiles using the Passing Moments tool. 44 Passing moments (Attainability = 69.7%, net time = 64:00)
