<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Este trabalho propõe um método para análise de níveis de serviço em praças de pedágio. O método foi elaborado a partir de dados representativos de condições operacionais características de rodovias e praças de pedágio brasileiras. O método proposto é baseado na percepção de usuários de praças de pedágio acerca da qualidade de serviço nas praças. A percepção dos usuários foi captada através de pesquisa qualitativa, que envolveu o uso de cenários microssimulados representativos de situações de tráfego em praças. A partir dos resultados da pesquisa qualitativa, foi realizada modelagem e obtida equação que relaciona a qualidade percebida pelos usuários com os fatores intervenientes: porcentagem de caminhões no fluxo, tamanho de fila e número de cabines de atendimento. Os resultados indicaram que o comprimento de filas nas cabines exerce forte influência sobre a qualidade percebida nas praças. Além da equação, é proposta uma escala de níveis de serviço relacionada com a qualidade percebida pelos usuários em praças de pedágio.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><br />Palavras-chave: praças de pedágio, nível de serviço, pesquisa qualitativa, simulação.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Abstract: This paper proposes a method for analyzing level of service at toll plazas. The method was built from data representing spe-cific operational conditions of Brazilian highways and toll plazas, and it is based on toll plaza quality service as perceived by users. Us-ers’ perception was captured by qualitative research, which involved the use of microsimulated scenarios representing traffic situations at toll plazas. The outcome of the qualitative research was a model relating service quality as perceived by users with the influence fac-tors: trucks percentage, queue length and number of toll booths. The results suggest that queue length at toll booths has a strong influ-ence on perceived quality at toll plazas. This paper also proposes a hierarchy for the level of service related to service quality perceived by users at toll plazas.<br />Keywords: toll plaza, level of service, qualitative research, simulation.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> </p>

Highways and freeways usually experience severe traffic congestion due to the presence of toll plazas which is considered as a bottleneck. In recent years, traffic engineers around the world have utilised microscopic traffic simulation models as tools to evaluate the performance of selected freeway facilities based on known traffic pattern data. This study attempts to analyse the performance of toll plaza by utilizing the microscopic traffic simulation software VISSIM 6.0, based on two different output measures, namely: average queue length and average delay time. At the selected toll plaza, data are collected at toll booths for all three modes of payments, which are: cash mode, Touch n Go, and Smart TAG. Therefore, this study aims to build a microscopic traffic simulation model that is capable of analysing the behaviour of vehicles at toll plaza based on the mentioned output measures for each mode of payment and also to determine the type of payment mode that has the most significant impact on the overall performance of toll plazas and ultimately, to understand the causes of congestion at toll plaza.

Toll plazas are one of the critical components of a roadway system. At the same time, they are among the most complex road structures, as drivers are exposed to a large amount of information and have a short amount of time to make a decision to avoid any collision. VISSIM and SSAM are used to investigate the effect of various Malaysian toll plazas design and traffic conditions on drivers’ behaviour and level of safety. The study was made a well-calibrated and validated VISSIM simulation model and several scenarios were simulated to test their efficacy for improving toll plaza safety aspects by using SSAM afterwards. From the results it was observed that the VISSIM simulation model scenarios such as implementing booths orientation and segregating lanes for different vehicle types to improve the level of service have significant safety aspects improvement regarding conflict points and lane change accidents results while using Surrogate Safety As-sessment Model (SSAM) in order to give the need for remediation of either the roadway design or the flow-control strategy.

A proposed macroscopic methodology for measuring the level of service (LOS) of toll plazas has been developed using delay as the measure of effectiveness (MOE). On the basis of field research and data analyses, the 85th percentile of the cumulative individual vehicular delay was found to be the most comprehensive measure for evaluating the LOS at a toll plaza. Other MOEs were examined but found to be less flexible with different plaza configurations and lane payment types. More than 55,000 individual vehicular records from three mainline toll plazas in Orlando, Florida, representing eight different plaza configurations with varied percentages of electronic toll collection (ETC) usage were used to validate the methodology. TPSIM, a toll plaza simulation model, was used to produce an additional 49 scenarios representing the three plazas with varied percentages of ETC usage and 21 additional plaza configurations. Service time was examined to determine the level at which a driver begins to feel discomfort and inconvenience at a toll plaza. An LOS hierarchy was established based on the conclusions of this analysis, feedback from professionals, and reference to the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2000. The 85th delay percentile graphs from each of the plaza analysis results for LOS values were also observed to be similar.

If the customer is greater than acceptable level of service, the cutomer is not satisfied. Conversely, if an acceptable level of service greater than the expectations of customers, the customer will be satisfied. This means that if Bank BRI branch Fatmawati can improve service quality to its customer it will affect the level of satisfaction. In this research found evidence that, in terms of the creation of quality services, Bank BRI branch Fatmawati is one of the branches that participate to implement the established policies and service in accordance with the exiting service standard in the banking world. Amount of influence the determination of quality of service policies applied by the Bank BRI branch Fatmawati indicated by r2. r2 value only 45 % and the rest 55 % influenced by other variables not studied. Meanwhile, the variable relationship of service quality to customer satisfaction can be seen from the values r = 0,67. This shows the value of the correlation coefficient between the variables of service quality to customer satisfaction. This means there are strong relationships between the independent variable X (quality of service) to the dependent variable Y (customer satisfaction). Since r = 0,67 (67 %) greater then 50 %.

Low-quality service providers who are unable or unwilling to compete through superior performance increasingly use humour in their marketing communication to generate positive service outcomes. Yet it remains unclear whether using humour to communicate poor service quality is indeed effective. Based on an online experiment in the context of budget hotels, this study finds that using humour to deliberately communicate poor service quality leads to higher purchase intentions and service quality evaluations by reducing both technical and functional service quality expectations. Theoretically, this study extends humour and service research by providing first empirical evidence for the viability of using humour as an effective tool for leveraging customer expectations of service quality rather than improving service performance. Managerially, these insights highlight how reducing customer expectations is an alternative strategy for attracting new customers and for achieving superior quality evaluations.

This study focuses on the perceived quality of participatory event experiences by addressing the following question: What are the important aspects of the event experience? The aim of this research is to develop and refine a scale to measure the quality of the event experience for runners at a participatory event. The objective is to combine, apply, test, and refine the existing scales to increase our understanding of the perceived quality of events among amateur running athletes. Both affective and cognitive dimensions are included in the scale. Based on seven dimensions and 36 items, a formal scale development process is adopted. The data consist of 1,923 observations collected during a participatory event with approximately 60,000 registered participants. The seven-factor model, including immersion, surprise, participation, fun, social aspects, hedonic aspects, and service quality, was gradually revised in favor of a four-factor solution: service quality, hedonic aspects, fun, and immersion. As a result, 73.1% of the variance is extracted. This study contributes to a refined scale measuring the perceived event quality of participatory events. Service quality accounts for more than half of the variance extracted. Researchers should continue to develop research on the critical experiential dimensions in an event context. Furthermore, the links between the constructs need attention. The results suggest that event organizers should evaluate their events and event portfolios based on the scale and take actions to increase the perceived quality of these events.
