Sažetak
Over the last decade Demand-Responsive Transport (DRT) services have grown in popularity for several reasons including: the shortcomings of conventional regular bus and taxi services ; shortcomings of special transport services ; and new developments in community transport. Traditional dial-a-ride services have often been criticised because of their relatively high cost of provision, their lack of flexibility in route planning and their inability to manage high demand. The potential for overcoming these limitations may be realised through the introduction of telematics-based DRT and this has been widely demonstrated, for example, in recent research funded by the European Commission (SAMPO and SAMPLUS projects). Telematics based DRT systems are organised via Travel Dispatch Centres (TDCs) using booking and reservation systems which assign passengers to vehicles and optimise the routes. The aim this paper is to explain the concept and organization of the DRT system, and to analyze best practices of the implementation in European cities.
