Quantifying Resilience Of Multi-modal Public Transportation System: Implications From Hong Kong

Description

While studying the resilience of city-wide public transportation, evaluation of individual systems in isolation provides unclear insights on resilience, without considering the increasing interconnectedness of the systems. To address this, we evaluate the resilience of the multi-modal public transportation network (MPTN) in Hong Kong by simulating disruption scenarios and assessing topological factors on the graph model, which integrates the layers of the metro, franchised bus, minibus, tram, and ferry systems by modeling the transfer behavior. We find that quantifying resilience from MPTN provides better solutions in identifying critical structures and improving overall resilience.
