From mode choice to modal diversion: A new behavioural paradigm and an application to the study of the demand for innovative transport services [PDF]
, 2009 We analyse past research efforts that focus on modal diversion in the transport sector, as opposed to the classical mode choice concept, showing the added value of this alternative framework that emerges from the existing scientific literature. The modal

A Threshold Policy for Dispatching Vehicles in Demand-responsive Transit Systems
PROMET - Traffic&Transportation, 2019 This paper considers vehicle dispatching for a flexible transit system providing doorstep services from a terminal. The problem is tackled with an easy-to-implement threshold policy, where an available vehicle is dispatched when the number of boarded ...

Unique Opportunities of Island States to Transition to a Low-Carbon Mobility System [PDF]
, 2020 Small islands developing states (SIDS) contribute minuscule proportions to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption, but are highly exposed to climate change impacts, in particular to extreme weather events and sea-level rise. However,

Determining the Market Uptake of Demand Responsive Transport Enabled Public Transport Service
Sustainability, 2020 Demand responsive transport (DRT) alternatives offer improved mobility to travellers through station-to-destination or door-to-transit operations. In particular, door-to-transit DRT service acts as a feeder to major public transport hubs, making public ...

Designing High-Freedom Responsive Feeder Transit System with Multitype Vehicles
Journal of Advanced Transportation, 2020 The last mile travelling problem is the most challenging part when using public transit. This study designs a high-freedom responsive feeder transit (HFRFT) system to serve at the transfer station, given vehicle routes, departure time, and service area ...
