  • Demand-Responsive Transportation Systems
    I ~ I CleGFi nolOiQ· U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTA·TION OF THE SECRETARY I , ...~Sharing OFFICE AND URBAN MASS TRANSPORTATION ADMINISTRATION ~ :::0 :....­ c:, •r• C, STATE-OF-THE-ART I OVERVIEW ...c: AUGUST 1974 HE 5620 dcmand-,c,pon,iUc +P3 D45 Urnill~~[POO[I]UffiU~OO~ ~ - w•on J --- ~·~ - This document has been prepared by the Transportation Systems Center and is disseminated under the sponsorship of the Department of Trans­ portation in the interest of information exchange. FOREWORD On March 16, 1972, the President sent a special message to Congress wherein he called "for a strong new effort to marshal! science and technology in the work of strengthening our economy and improving the quality of our life." In this message he stated that in the final analysis," the progress we seek requires a new partnership in science and technology-­ one which brings together the Federal Government, private enterprise, State and local governments, and our universities and research centers in a coordinated, cooperative effort to serve the national interest." As part of its ongoing commitment to this principle of technology-sharing, the U.S. Department of Transportation has initiated a series of publications based on research and development efforts sponsored by the Department. The series comprises technical reports, state-of-the-art documents, newsletters and bulletins, manuals and handbooks, bibliographies, and other special publications. All share a primary objective: to contri­ bute to a better base of knowledge and understanding throughout the transportation community, and, thereby, to an improvement in the basis for decision-making within the community. This title in the series presents an overview of demand responsive transportation, an innovative approach that may help fill the need for flexibility in public transportation.

  • School Bus Services in Rochdale September 2019 to July 2020
    School Bus Services in Rochdale September 2019 to July 2020 Services in this leaflet operate on schooldays only, unless otherwise stated. Services are listed alphabetically under school names. Rochdale Schools 2019-2020 website - 1 - 18/10/19 An introduction to School buses and concessionary fares for students in Greater Manchester Passengers can pay a fare to the driver for each journey shown on this timetable. However, students will need to show an IGO pass to travel at the concessionary (reduced) fare. If students do not have an IGO pass, they will have to pay a higher fare. Most of the journeys shown in this timetable are funded by Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM). The majority of TfGM funded services charge a standard fare and also offer daily return tickets. In some cases, the return ticket can also be used for travel on other journeys which serve similar areas – even if it is provided by a different operator. On most services, students can also buy a weekly scholar’s ticket, which costs £7.40. These are ONLY valid on schooldays on school buses and are available from the bus driver on all services where they are applicable. To help the driver, please try to have the correct fare when buying your ticket. A summary of fares and ticketing information on all school services included in this timetable can be found at https://www.tfgm.com/tickets-and-passes/bus-school-bus-services There are also a small number of TfGM funded services where the operator sets the fares. You will need to check with the operator what fares are available.
