Abstract
Within advanced public transport operations, specifically paratransit systems, a special range is covered by the so-called checkpoint dial-a-ride systems, also known as route deviation or corridor many-to-one systems. The system combines characteristics both of traditional fixed route transit and of advanced door-to-door dial-a-ride service. Such systems are based on information technology to improve transit operations and are intended to serve areas with demand densities too high for door-to-door services but not high enough for fixed route service. The paper presents some recent mathematical modelling approaches to the deviation bus route operations which accept user demands and makes the bus deviate from its regular route to serve the off-fixed-route request and then return on the regular route.
