Timetable Optimization

The MAIOR suite generates efficient timetables that optimally satisfy service specifications such as desired headways, passenger capacity or even efficient use of available vehicles.

MAIORs Timetable Design module performs includes a best-in class multi-line algorithm to automate repetitive calculations when dealing with offsetting of services and connections and reduce the potential for errors.
