Podium Session 4: Design of Mixed Fixed-Flexible Bus Public Transport Networks by Tracking the Paths of On-Demand Vehicles
Title: Design of Mixed Fixed-Flexible Bus Public Transport Networks by Tracking the Paths of On-Demand Vehicles
Authors: Andrés Fielbaum, Javier Alonso-Mora
Abstract: On-demand ridepooling (ODRP) vehicles follow routes that are fully flexible. However, when the system does not provide door-to-door service and users can be asked to walk, their paths tend to concentrate, particularly along main streets that connect highly demanded areas of the city. These frequently travelled segments are hence useful to multiple ...
