Station-based systems

Station-based systems are transportation networks where vehicles, like buses, trains, or bikes, operate from designated fixed points called stations or stops. Passengers plan their trips by waiting at these stations for the next vehicle, which follows specific routes and schedules. This system allows for organized, predictable service, making it easier to manage large passenger volumes and ensure coverage across an area. Examples include metro trains, bus networks, and bike-sharing stations. Overall, station-based systems are structured, reliable, and designed to facilitate efficient mass transit within cities.
