UTTRI associated faculty Professor Steven Farber and Professor Shauna Brail co-hosted the webinar “The Social Benefits of On-Demand Transit” with Luke Mellor of Pantonium, Inc. on June 4, 2020.
The City of Belleville introduced on-demand transit for their evening service in September 2018. After a year in service, and 3,000 registered users, a research team from the University of Toronto conducted a survey to better understand the social benefits of on-demand transit service.
The one-hour webinar discussed the social and economic outcomes uncovered in the report The Benefits of On-Demand Transit in Belleville: Findings From a User Survey by Yixue Zhang, Steven Farber, and Mischa Young of the University of Toronto.
