Crest Speed, Average Speed & Schedule Speed

 

Crest Speed

• The maximum speed attained by the vehicle during its running is called as crest speed.

Average Speed

• The mean or average speed of the vehicle during from start to stop is called as average speed. 
• It is distance covered between two stops divided by the actual time of run.

      Average speed = Distance between two stops / Average time of run

Schedule Speed

• It is defined as the ratio of the distance covered between two stops and total time of run include time of stop is called as schedule speed.

Schedule speed = Distance between two stops / [ Actual time of run + Stop time ]

• The schedule speed is smaller than the average speed.
