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.
