Future Public Transport Services
Exploring the Introduction of “On-demand Public Transport Mode”
To flexibly respond to passenger demand and effectively utilise resources, we will study the feasibility of introducing of “On-Demand Public Transport Mode” while planning basic public transport services in suitable New Development Areas.
We will study the feasibility of introducing “On-demand Public Transport Mode” while planning basic public transport services in suitable New Development Areas. This operation mode uses technology to flexibly deploy vehicles of different passenger capacities according to demand in specified areas, allowing greater flexibility in scheduling and planning routes. It can complement fixed-schedule and fixed-route public transport services to meet passenger demands under different circumstances, lending itself to short intra-district feeder transport services. Passengers can make trip requests via mobile application. Based on the actual overall demand collected and real-time traffic conditions, the operator can flexibly adjust their services at different time slots to provide passengers with more convenient and personalised journeys.
