A system computes a timing interval between high-capacity vehicles (HCVs) for each of a plurality of HCV corridors within a geographic region, each respective HCV corridor of the plurality of HCV corridors including a start area. For each respective HCV corridor, the system transmits, via a network communication interface, (i) first data to a first computing device associated with a first HCV, the first data indicating the start area of the respective HCV corridor, and a first start time for the first HCV, and (ii) second data to a second computing device associated with a second HCV, the second data indicating the start area of the respective HCV corridor and a second start time for the second HCV, wherein the first start time for the first HCV and the second start time for the second HCV are based on the computed timing interval for the respective HCV corridor.

Computing timing intervals for vehicles through directional route corridor

A computing system computes a timing interval between high-capacity vehicles (HCVs) for each HCV corridor within a geographic region to control rates of HCVs entering and exiting each of the HCV corridors. For each of the HCV corridors, the computing system schedules a first HCV to provide a transport service along the corridor beginning at a first starting time, transmits first schedule data for the corridor to the first HCV, schedules a second HCV to provide the transport service along the corridor beginning at a second starting time after the first starting time according to the timing interval for the corridor, and transmits second schedule data for the corridor to the second HCV.
