Samenvatting
The paper focuses on the Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA) on DRT, and discusses some of the policy implications. The future of community paratransit service, characterized by the flexible routing and scheduling of small vehicles to provide shared-occupancy, door-to-door, personalized transportation service within smaller neighbourhoods is virtually assured. However, the biggest scope for the future expansion of paratransit lies in its becoming an element of integrated metropolitan transportation systems.
