I'm working on a city-scale simulation that includes multimodal transport within a public transport system. From what I understand from the SUMO documentation (
), SUMO seems to support only bus, tram, and train as public transport modes.
1. My first question:
The reason I’m asking is that I’d like to use the <personFlow> and <personTrip> elements with modes="public", like this:
<personFlow id="AB" begin="0" end="3600" probability="0.1">
<personTrip from="-E1" to="-E0" arrivalPos="-20" modes="public"/>
</personFlow>
(source:
https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Tutorials/PublicTransport.html)
If I can define bicycles as public transport, I’m hoping that persons will be able to automatically choose them as part of the public transport option.
2. My second question:
If the answer to question 1 is no, then is there a way to automatically plan a trip where a person travels from point A to B using, for example, a bus and then a bike ?
Or do I need to create such multimodal trips manually for each person?
Is there a more automated, easier, or smarter way to build these kinds of mixed-mode journeys?
Any help or ideas would be really appreciated!
Have a great weekend!
