Title: IMPORTANT INCREASES IN PUBLIC PASSENGER TRANSPORT THROUGH THE USE OF NOVEL PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEMS
Abstract: In the future allowance must be made for an increasing individual use of vehicular transport, which must be contrasted with a declining or at best stagnant demand for conventional public transport systems in many areas. By the introduction of novel public transport systems it should be possible to increase the number of passengers using public transport and at the same time achieve a more efficient use of the road network. Despite the many difficulties in predicting the public acceptability of novel modes of transport, it should be possible through further development of existing modal-split models in conjunction with special enquiries to estimate the future demand for various modes of transport taking into account the effect of introducing new public transport systems.
