Shedding a Light on Demand-Responsive Transport (DRT)

No one size fits all when it comes to demand-responsive transport. Flexible and at the request of riders, DRT plays all kinds of different roles in mobility, but the offer is the same: improved accessibility and reduced waiting and travel times thanks to direct connections.
