Investigating Spatiotemporal Characteristics of Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) Service for the Disabled through Survival Analysis [PDF]
KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering, 2022 The importance of Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) has increased as it guarantees the right to travel and improves mobility for special population groups such as disabled people and low income households. In order for DRT to become a sustainable means of transportation, it is necessary to keep the quality of DRT service above a certain level that ...

Case Studies on Transport Policy, 2020 Abstract Despite the potential capability of demand-responsive transport systems (DRT) to improve service quality of public transport in rural areas, existing DRT systems in Germany are often under-utilized. Thus, there is a need to examine usage barriers and facilitating factors that affect the adoption of DRT systems.

Efficient operation of demand-responsive transport (DRT) systems:Active requests rejection
Procedia Computer ScienceDemand-responsive transport (DRT) is getting more attention in the public sectors. In DRT systems operated by public sectors, providing a good and equal service to the public is more important than maximizing the revenue. This brings additional challenges to the operation of DRT systems. In this study, we explore the idea of actively rejecting requests
