| Analysis of user motivations, ridership, and side effects of an app-based demand-responsive transit | |
| In a built-up area two men board a small bus with Arriva Click written on it. "Since the rebirth of demand-responsive transit (DRT) after 2010 many failed and discontinued initiatives have been observed. The issues range from inadequate technology, ill-defined spatial and temporal conditions, to missing knowledge of user preferences, low ridership, and of course funding, since many trials are ceased once the subsidy is stopped. In this paper, we explore the use and effects of an app-based DRT in a suburban environment based on the data collected from users and non-users of a newly launched service in Austria. The results indicate that the service performs well as a feeder mode for rail transportation with positive user reviews. However, there are concerns about a limited operating area, too short operating hours and low pooling effects (occupancy rates)." | |
