Note: TT: travel time of transit vehicle along evacuation route (s). STDEV: standard deviation of travel time (s). Delay-M: average delay of private vehicle in the signalized intersection along the evacuation route (s). Delay-C: average delay of private vehicle on the side street along the evacuation route (s). V-delay: average vehicle delay in the signalized intersection (s); P-delay: average person delay in the signalized intersection (s). CC = (TSP-TSAC – TSP-SCATS) 100/TSP-SCATS (%).
