Improving the Usage of Demand Response Transit Services in Rural Kansas
| 项目名称： | Improving the Usage of Demand Response Transit Services in Rural Kansas |
| 摘要： | Public transportation providers can be grouped into two main groups: fixed route transit providers and demand response transit providers. There are many demand response type transit services available in Kansas particularly in rural areas where there are no fixed route transportation services available. These types of services mainly serve transportation-disadvantaged groups (elderly, people with disabilities, low income, etc.) and provide an invaluable service to such groups. However, as compared to the cost associated with providing such a service the usage levels remain low for almost all providers. Therefore this project intends to conduct customer satisfaction surveys and also surveys of non-users that could likely be converted to users, with the intention of identifying the problem areas. This will eventually lead to providing recommendations for increasing the usage of these services. The main objectives of this proposed project are to conduct customer satisfaction surveys and non-user surveys of selected sets of demand response public transit providers in Kansas and provide recommendations with the intention of improving utilization. |
