摘要回顾了1969-1985年间叫车系统在交通创新中的作用变化。第一阶段的Dial-a-Ride系统被构思和规划为运输服务,以补充甚至取代传统的运输服务。然而,它们未能吸引到公共交通市场的任何可观份额,加上其高昂的运营成本,导致它们在七十年代中期消亡,取而代之的是第二阶段的电话叫车系统,作为为老年人和残疾人士提供的辅助服务。这些后来的系统往往是由以社区为基础的运输机构发起的,这些机构已经证明了它们作为运输创新者在满足乘客需求方面的能力。建议其他交通服务可以从社区Dial-a-Ride的经验中吸取宝贵的教训,Dial-a-Ride本身将被历史证明是后管制环境下客运服务重组的重要过渡因素。
Abstract The changing role of Dial‐a‐Ride systems in the period 1969 to 1985 is reviewed as a case study in transport innovation. The first phase Dial‐a‐Ride systems were conceived and planned as transport services to complement and even replace conventional transit. However, their failure to attract any sizeable part of the public transport market combined with their high operating costs led to their demise in the mid‐1970s, to be superseded by the second phase Dial‐a‐Ride systems as paratransit services to the elderly and handicapped. These later systems were often initiated by community‐based transport agencies which have demonstrated their ability as transport innovators in meeting passenger needs. It is suggested that other transport services could learn valuable lessons from the experiences of community Dial‐a‐Ride, and that Dial‐a‐Ride itself will prove historically to be an important transitional agent in the reorganization of passenger transport services in the post‐deregulation environment of th...
