Reservation, Scheduling, and Navigation System for a Checkpoint DRT Service

The report describes a prototype system developed to serve Demand- Responsive Transit (DRT). The system is designed to reserve DRT trips and dispatch buses in an automated fashion. The DRT service is provided by buses and has been proposed for a pilot project deployment in Fremont, California. The service is scheduled to be deployed as a hybrid service alternating between a traditional fixed route mode and the DRT mode from one bus trip to the next. The report describes the prototype systems from the perspective of the system users. Software development notes are provided to document the lessons learned from tge development work.
