| Research Abstract |
This research deals with the model where the normal bus system is replaced to the on-demand bus system in a local area. Two on-demand bus systems with fixed route are considered. One has time table as usual bus though the bus does not go the bus stop with no demand call. The other does not have time table the bus go to the bus stop where the user calls. It is also dealt with the optimal time table and bus route from the questionnaire. This research helps us to estimate how many buses are needed and to determine what time table the bus system should adopt.
