A Resilience-as-a-Service assessment framework for coordinated disruption response in interdependent urban transit systems

arXiv:2606.08849v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Urban public transport disruptions require rapid response strategies, yet existing studies rarely provide a decision support framework to compare alternative disruption response solutions using a common set of dynamic, passenger, operator, and environment oriented indicators. This paper proposes a KPI-driven, time-indexed framework to assess the resilience of disruption response solutions in urban transit systems. The framework combines an optimization model with a behavioral evaluation in agent-based simulation. It also underlays the secondary s
The increasing complexity and interconnectedness of urban transit systems, coupled with rising expectations for continuous service, demand more sophisticated disruption response strategies, making this research timely.
This framework offers a structured, data-driven approach to enhance urban resilience by providing a common set of metrics to compare and optimize disruption response solutions in critical infrastructure.
The adoption of such a framework would enable urban planners and transit operators to move beyond ad-hoc responses towards proactively designed, data-backed resilience strategies, improving urban functionality during crises.

More efficient and less disruptive urban transit operations during unforeseen events.
Increased public trust in urban infrastructure and potentially higher ridership due to improved reliability.
Integration of similar resilience-as-a-service frameworks into other urban critical infrastructure sectors, driving broader smart city development.
