[sumo-user] docked bicycle system

[Manish Chaturvedi <msc.nit@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear SUMO users,

I want to design a docked bicycle system using SUMO  wherein the commuters can issue and return the bicycles at a nearby docking station. 

I am thinking of the following:

1) a docking station  can be designed as a parking area of having smaller size parking slots than normal vehicles

2) It should be accessible from the Bicycle lane/pedestrian lane

3) Bicycle will be modeled as a slow moving vehicle as suggested at https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Simulation/Bicycles.html

4) Person trips may be defined as a sequence of walk - issue bicycle - ride bicycle - return bicycle - walk

Is it the right way to attempt this? Please suggest some relevant pointers

Regards,

Manish
