项目名称: Synthesis of Information Related to Transit Practices. Topic SG-19. Paratransit Service Delivery Models for Small Systems
摘要: Demand for demand response services including ADA complementary paratransit continues to grow while resources are dwindling. Because of this, transit agencies continue to explore models to more effectively meet growing demand. Small agencies in particular may be finding unique and better ways to adopt “hybrid” service models (such as brokerage service, TNCs or mobility managers) and community-based operations using non-traditional operators. The objective of this synthesis is to document, for a comprehensive set of service models, the way various elements of the service and contracts are structured to enhance the likelihood of achieving certain results related to cost efficiency, service quality, or the balance of the two. The synthesis will provide examples from the industry of what is currently being implemented. In particular, this synthesis will explore delivery models for small systems (a total fleet of no more than 50 vehicles). It will document the way various service and contract models are structured to enhance the knowledgebase of small agencies. The document should examine intended and unintended outcomes, advantages and disadvantages, and the balance of cost efficiency and service quality of the delivery models.
