tfl_scp_001783 Demand Responsive Bus Service Trial
Notice Description
Demand responsive bus services are those provided by public service vehicles which follow either flexible routes, flexible timetables, or both. These types of service have existed in various forms for several decades. However, in recent years improvements in technology, including vastly improved routing algorithms, have opened up a number of new opportunities which could be used to enhance the availability of public transport for Londoners. We are exploring demand responsive bus services to better understand their potential to enhance London's transport network. In particular, and as articulated in the Mayor's Transport Strategy (MTS), we believe this type of service may have the potential to contribute to sustainable travel by 1) helping to achieve modal shift to public transport in areas where car dependence is greatest; 2) acting as a complement to the existing network and improving affordable access to essential services, employment, education and retail opportunities in areas with lower service coverage; and 3) helping to promote a preference for travel by public transport and active modes amongst those moving into new residential areas. We are considering working with a supplier (or suppliers) to run a co funded demand responsive bus service trial(s).
