Calculating the passenger-carrying capacity of transportation systems is an important and necessary process to determine if a proposed system can be expected to meet design requirements related to passenger demand. The analysis and calculation must consider many factors that influence the final passenger-carrying capacity of a transportation system, such as safe separation distance, operational headway, average speed of the vehicles, the vehicle control system design,track alignments, ride comfort criteria, dwell time, and system operating modes. While this paper discusses systems with off-line stations and pinched loop systems with in-line stations, the methodologies discussed are applicable when analyzing the capacity of different transportation technologies and networks.
