Assessment of factors affecting adoption of a micro-transit service by commuters

Abstract Details

2020, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Civil Engineering.
The purpose of this study is to assess the factors that may influence demand for a flexible commuter shuttle serving employees of a large medical center. In order to address this research question, a web-based survey was designed to collect and analyze the employees' current commute patterns, their attitudes toward and satisfaction with commute travel and various forms of transportation, and to investigate under what circumstances they might choose to commute using a demand-responsive commuter shuttle service. For this purpose, they were presented with a variety of hypothetical scenarios and they were asked to indicate how they would choose to commute under each of them. After the data collection part, a mixed logit model with error components was used to capture the probability of people choosing such a service and key insights and design ideas and implications for the commuter shuttle were developed.
