| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we proposed hierarchical demand responsive bus system connecting multilevel demand responsive bus and evaluated the system by traffic simulation for an actual city model. The simulation result showed that the trip time of our system is nearly equal to the existing fixed route buses and the total distance of walk is considerably reduced. We also developed a dynamic microscopic traffic simulator for quantitative evaluation of traffic systems including demand responsive buses. The simulator can complete a single simulation of medium-sized urban area in practical time.
