Demand Responsive Transit Simulation of Wayne County, Michigan [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2021
Demand responsive transit (DRT) can provide an alternative to private cars and complement existing public transport services. However, the successful implementation of DRT services remains a challenge as both researchers and policy makers can struggle to determine what sorts of places or cities are suitable for it.

Demand Responsive Transit: Understanding Emerging Solutions [PDF]

open access: yesWorld Resources Institute, 2021
Demand Responsive Transit adapts well to users’ needs and can increase efficiency in situations where regular public transport systems are more cost­ly. However, as DRTs are constantly evolving, the concept and its applications and benefits can be hard to grasp. This working paper provides an introduc­tory description, a proposed classification of DRT

Vehicle routing and scheduling of demand-responsive connector with on-demand stations

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017
As an important supplement of conventional fixed-route public transit, flexible transit services draw more attention in low-demand areas recently. Demand-responsive connector is one of those flexible transit services and has already been operated as ...

Estimating suburban preferences for integrated public transit and ridesourcing services through a revealed-preference/stated-preference survey

open access: yesJournal of Public Transportation, 2023
Low-density areas like suburbs can be challenging to serve with fixed-route transit. Demand responsive transit has been used to service these areas with mixed results, but suburban travellers may respond to ridesourcing integrated with transit more ...

Impact of Competition on Quality of Service in Demand Responsive Transit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Demand responsive transportation has the potential to provide efficient public door-to-door transport with a high quality. In currently implemented systems in the Netherlands, however, we observe a decrease in the quality of service (QoS), expressed in longer travel times for the customers.

Integrating Demand Responsive Services Into Public Transport Disruption Management

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2021
High-capacity public transport services such as metro and commuter trains are efficient during normal operations but are vulnerable to disruptions. To manage disruptions, bridging buses are commonly called in to replace the rail-based service along the ...
