Traffic congestion has increased globally during the last decade representing an undoubted menace to the quality of urban life. A significant contribution can be made by the public transport system in reducing the problem intensity if it provides high-quality service. However, public transportation systems are highly complex because of the modes involved, the multitude of origins and destinations, and the amount and variety of traffic. They have to cope with dynamic environments where many complex and random phenomena appear and disturb the traffic network. To ensure good service quality, a control system should be used in order to maintain the public transport scheduled timetable. The quality service should be measured in terms of public transport key performance indicators (KPIs) for the wider urban transport system and issues. In fact, in the absence of a set of widely accepted performance measures and transferable methodologies, it is very difficult for public transport to objectively assess the effects of specific regulation system and to make use of lessons learned from other public transport systems. Moreover, vehicle traffic control tasks are distributed geographically and functionally, and disturbances might influence on many itineraries and occur simultaneously. Unfortunately, most existing traffic control systems consider only a part of the performance criteria and propose a solution without man-aging its influence on neighboring areas of the network. This paper sets the context of performance measurement in the field of public traffic management and presents the regulation support system of public transportation (RSSPT). The aim of this regulation support system is (i) to detect the traffic perturbation by distinguishing a critical performance variation of the current traffic, (ii) and to find the regulation action by optimizing the performance of the quality service of the public transportation. We adopt a multi-agent approach to model the system, as their distributed nature, allows managing several disturbances concurrently. The validation of our model is based on the data of an entire journey of the New York City transport system in which two perturbation scenarios occur. This net-work has the nation’s largest bus fleet and more subway and commuter rail cars than all other U.S. transit systems combined. The obtained results show the efficiency of our system especially in case many performance indicators are needed to regulate a disturbance situation. It demonstrates the advantage as well of the multiagent approach and shows how the agents of different neighboring zones on which the disturbance has an impact, coordinate and adapt their plans and solve the issue.
