Abstract :
This paper presents a model developed for analyzing post-disruption metro operations at the station - platform level. A short discussion on metro operating strategies is provided and necessary elements for modeling conditions and passenger evolution in a metro station´s platforms are developed and presented. An application of the model is also offered.
