A Survey on Demand-Responsive Transportation for Rural and Interurban Mobility.
Rural areas have been marginalized when it comes to flexible, quality transportation research. This review article brings together papers that discuss, analyze, model, or experiment with demand-responsive transportation systems applied to rural settlements and interurban transportation, discussing their general feasibility as well as the most ...

Perspectives of mobility development in remote areas attractive to tourists
This paper addresses the problem of transport systems in remote areas, defined by a set of constraints deriving from a sparse population, infrequent transportation location means stops and cost-effectiveness of the system.

Examining the factors influencing microtransit users’ next ride decisions using Bayesian networks
The progress of microtransit services across the world has been slower than expected due to institutional, operational, and financial barriers. However, how users' ride experiences and system attributes affects their future ride decisions remain an ...

A demand-responsive decision support system for coal transportation [PDF]
In this paper, a demand-responsive decision support system is proposed by integrating the operations of coal shipment, coal stockpiles and coal railing within a whole system. A generic and flexible scheduling optimisation methodology is developed to identify, represent, model, solve and analyse the coal transport problem in a standard and convenient ...

Optimization of demand-responsive transport: The rolling horizon approach
Demand-responsive Transport (DRT) is a popular topic in the field of transportation. The rolling horizon approach can be used to achieve an efficient operation of the DRT system in the context of trip pre-booking. In this study, a rolling horizon optimizer is implemented and used in an agent-based transport simulation framework. A series of experiments

Multi-day fair collaboration in demand-responsive transportation
AbstractIn this paper, we consider the case of companies that offer a demand-responsive transportation service, such as a shared-taxi service, and are engaged in a horizontal collaboration initiative. The goal of the coalition is to optimize the transportation operations in such a way that no company is penalized, in terms of customers served and/or ...

A Modular Synthetic Demand Generation Framework for Demand-Responsive Public Transport
This study develops a modular framework for generating synthetic demand for demand-responsive public transport (DRT) using real service data. From 518 days of operational records (~37,000 trips), we construct a simulated empirical demand (SED) baseline ...

Welfare consequences of request stops at transport services with low demand
Background Demand-responsive transport is an alternative to fixed-route, fixed-scheduled transport services in low-demand areas. Objective This paper discusses the welfare and distributional consequences of the implementation of request stops (RSs) on a ...
