Author: Computer-aided Scheduling and Dispatch in Demand-responsive Transit Services
Author: David S. KesslerPublisher: Transportation Research Board
ISBN: 030907021X
Category : Paratransit services

Pages : 92
Book Description
The scope of this synthesis is to (1) search out useful information on the use of computer-aided scheduling and dispatch (CASD) in demand-responsive transit (DRT) services, (2) develop an amalgamation or compendium of the current knowledge and successful practices used in computerizing the functions necessary to efficiently and effectively operate such DRT services, and (3) report on measures used to resolve specific problems in planning and implementing CASD. The ultimate objective in compiling a considerable storehouse of information is to make this information available to the public transit community. Private and nonprofit organizations that are providing DRT services will similarly benefit from a review of these results.
