The preliminary design of many-to-few dial bus services
Dial-a-bus is a term used to describe a form of demand activated road based public transport. A common type of dial-a-bus service is one which links a service area to a few major trip attractors. This is known as a 'many-to-few' type of operation and such an operation normally has no fixed routes, bus stops or timetable. In order to design such a service to operate without fixed stops, a method…
Comparative assessment of demand responsive and fixed route bus services
Trrl Lr 847 The operation of dial-a-bus, fixed route minibus and conventional bus service in Old Harlow was monitored; details of their operating characteristics, ridership and user characteristics are presented. A quantitative assessment of the services was made by comparing them when operated for the same hours, at the same fares and when costed on the same basis. The fares were normalised…
Bus services in small towns
Trrl Lr 848 A study is made of fixed route bus service operating in towns with populations in the range 5,000 to 30,000. Analysis of eight such services is carried out to identify and, where possible, quantify those factors which favour their operation. The study was undertaken to assess the potential for and advisability of extending this type of operation to other small towns. Quantitative…
The economics of contract bus services
An analysis is made of the prices charged by privately owned bus and coach companies for works and school contract services in a particular area. A regression equation is obtained which relates the contract price to the type of contract (works or school), vehicle size and distance run. This equation is used to compute the fare required for a work contract service to break-even at varying loads …
