Wei Feng Dissertation Defense April 2014


This is slightly belated but I was very happy back in April to serve as a member of Dr. Wei Feng's dissertation committee. His dissertation is entitled "Analyses of Bus Travel Time Reliability and Transit Signal Priority at the Stop-to-Stop Segment Level," and is an innovative piece of work using high resolution data from TriMet buses as well as the City of Portland's adaptive traffic signal system. I first met Wei in China in 2006, and ultimately recruited him to come to the U.S., so I was very happy and proud of his work here at PSU and I wish him will in his new position with the Chicago Transit Authority starting in September!
