Abstract

DRT is seen as an attempt to solve some of the problems of congestion and pollution, and the immobility of the poor and the elderly. It must, however, be realistic and efficient in implementation. It must be realized that most DRT systems have not generated demands greater than 10 requests/square/ mile/hour; ridership surveys show that the majority of riders have not replaced automobile trips. Concern for efficiency is an important factor.
