Le Transport A la Demande (TAD) en France : de l'état des lieux à l'anticipation. Modélisation des caractéristiques fonctionnelles des TAD pour développer les modes flexibles de demain

摘要

Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) is a type of public transportation, which combines the advantages of collective transport and taxi. It has often been considered as a marginal means of transportation reserved to low density territories. Since the end of the 90s, the number of DRT services has increased regularly. A database of 615 services shows that DRT services invest new territories such as urban, suburban or rural spaces. They offer a large variety of operating services, which are described by using several models we designed (functional, statistical and graphical models). The last part of the thesis is devoted to the flexibility of the DRTs, a survey is analysed to discuss the reliability of future DRT services. Three examples illustrate the flexible DRT potentialities for public transportation networks.
