How do I add transportation schedules to a multimodal network dataset? For example, Bus 1 runs between 08:00 and 16:00, and Bus 2 between 14:00 and 23:00. If a passenger wants to solve for a route starting at 16:30, Bus 1 cannot be included in the result as it is not in service at that time.
After some research, I came across this article about managing a public transit system in GIS using ArcInfo 8 (the article is from 2004). The transit data model is essentially the same as the one that ESRI currently has available, except they added a table called ScheduleTimetable, which contains the bus schedules which are related to routes. This table can't be added to the network dataset though, as file gdb tables can't be stored inside a feature dataset (and therefore can't be used in a network dataset). How would I be able to access the time fields so they can be used as restrictions for the routes?
