Abstract :	[en] In this paper we analyze the impact of using cooperative intelligent transportation systems (C-ITS) to manage electrical bus systems. A simulation-based study is presented where three control strategies are used to regulate the operations of a line, namely bus holding, Green Light Optimal Dwell Time Adaptation (GLODTA) and Transit Signal Priority (TSP). The results show, using a realistic scenario of a major line in Luxembourg City, that buses are efficiently operated without necessarily providing additional priority to public transport, hence without negatively affecting the capacity of the private vehicles system. Benefits in terms of headway regulations, energy consumption and travel time variance reductions are quantified.
