Transport on Demand From the Operator's Perspective
What’s in this Publication?
In areas with varying demand and limited service options, demand-responsive transport (DRT) can enhance the flexibility, accessibility, and efficiency of public transport systems.
Demand-responsive transport (DRT) solves the challenge of providing public transport in low-demand areas, where traditional bus services are inefficient. Fixed routes often struggle to serve rural and low-density regions due to high costs and low ridership. DRT offers a flexible, demand-based solution, improving access and making public transport more efficient in places where regular bus services aren’t practical.
See in-depth information on how bus operators are adopting demand-responsive transport (DRT), with practical examples, challenges, and strategies for integrating flexible solutions into public transport.
