Providing sustainable transport options in rural areas can be a tricky balancing act, with public transport operators stuck between bad options. Should they not offer service at all? Or should they run empty or near-empty buses? 🚍📱 Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) may be the solution! Responsive to riders needs - DRT can be thought of as a hybrid between a bus and a taxi, offering flexible routing and scheduling that reacts dynamically to passengers’ requests. Discover how this growing sector addresses unique challenges based on population density and dispersion in this new article of the series Mastering Mobility 📰👇 #UrbanMobility #DRT #PublicTransport #OnDemand EIT - European Institute of Innovation and Technology | Nemi | Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB)
