Analysis of Demand-responsive Transport Services: a Microsimulation Approach
Demand-Responsive Transport Services (DRTS) are an attempt to improve the efficiency of public transport when demand is sporadic. The DRT service simulator that we have developed analyses most of the random events, such as traffic congestion and the arrival time of passengers at their pickup points, which ultimately affect the quality of the service. We assume that vehicles are moving within th...
متن کاملFactors Influencing Productivity and Operating Cost of Demand Responsive Transit
Since the enactment of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1991 operating expenses for Demand Responsive Transit have more than doubled as demand for this mandated service has expanded. Many advanced technologies and management practices have been proposed and implemented to improve the efficiency of the service; but, evidence for the effectiveness of these actions has been based upon projec...
متن کاملA Simulation Study of Demand Responsive Transit System Design
In this paper we study the impact on productivity of specific operating practices currently used by demand responsive transit (DRT) providers. We investigate the effect of using a zoning vs. a no-zoning strategy and time-window settings on performance measures such as total trip miles, deadhead miles and fleet size. It is difficult to establish closed form expressions to assess the impact on th...

متن کاملFeeder transit services: Choosing between fixed and demand responsive policy
The Demand Responsive Connector (DRC) connects a residential area to a major transit network through a transfer point and is one of the most often adopted types of flexible transit services. In this paper, analytical and simulation models are developed to assist planners in the decision making process when having to choose between a demand responsive and a fixed-route operating policy and wheth...
