About the event
What are our motives and experiences about “on-demand transportation” (flexible bus lines)? Let’s together discover how “on-demand transport” is organised, how it works and how customers perceive it. It can be a great
leap forward by redefining what convenient transport means for certain areas of our regions with sparse populations.
In terms of expert languages: Demand-Responsive Transport (DRT), Microtransit or On-Demand Transport (ODT) has taken on many forms over the last years. From dial-a-ride shuttle services, taxis and now app-based pick-up and drop-off options, transport services that are on-demand, are making life easier and more convenient for commuters. Our role and options as PTAs are interesting to look at and discuss in workshop form.
