The buses will have a more variable arrival time than LRVs, so simultaneous transfers are unlikely. More likely would be a situation where, with 10 minute headways, a bus would be targeted to arrive halfway between two LRVs. That way, if you are trying to go from LRV to bus, you should have 5 minutes of waiting, and if you are trying to do the reverse, going from the bus to an LRV, you should have 5 minutes of waiting. If the bus is ahead or behind schedule, one of those waits becomes shorter, the other longer.
I would think they really should try using the burn-in to confirm/deny the predicted travel times. Do runs with no priority at all, runs with priority only activated for trains running X minutes behind schedule, and priority at every single crossing, and see what kind of travel time you can get. It will be the easiest way to get models for this timing, without having to deal with extra costs/interferences.
