Veronique Cardon, MS | Could Princeton Offer Transit on Demand For All, Even Those Who Don’t Drive Cars? Lively town resident discussion about Autonomous Vehicle Possibilities at Sept. 28th Princeton Future Event Moderated by Einstein’s Alley ED |
 What if an automated vehicle could drop you off with your groceries at your front door, then go pick up someone else? One car could make about 50 “person” trips per day instead of five, so that only one car is needed for every ten that exist now, and at night only one car, not ten, would need to be parked. Could Princeton families with a few cars cut back to one or two, or none? By Donald Gilpin | Town Topics | September 25, 2019 | |
| Changing the way we get around.On-Demand Transit |
The concept of ‘on-demand’ transit is not completely new. Even in Princeton, ‘Crosstown Transportation’, which is available for seniors, offers door-to-door transportation, by prior reservation, to any destination in the municipality, for $3. The most modern versions of this kind of transit service use smartphone apps and aim to group riders from similar areas into shared vans, so the shuttles can reach more people, more quickly. Although some transit experts have expressed skepticism that on-demand shuttles can ever move as many people as traditional transit, many towns are launching experiments to see if on-demand transit can help their residents meet their transportation needs. At best, on-demand transit could complement traditional bus services to enable more people to get by without owning a personal automobile. Could Princeton families with a few cars cut back to one or two, or none? Walkable Princeton | September 25, 2019 | |
