Autonomous Vehicle Supported Mobility Services For Rural Areas, Alvira Ahmed Tasnim Jan 2025

Autonomous Vehicle Supported Mobility Services For Rural Areas, Alvira Ahmed Tasnim

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) are emerging as a promising mobility solution to address growing transportation demands, particularly unmet traffic demand in rural areas where conventional transit systems often fall short. Rural areas face unique mobility challenges due to dispersed populations, limited infrastructure, and low/no transit coverage. Existing transit services tend to concentrate around dense urban cores, leaving low-demand areas outside underserved. This spatial undercoverage leads to significant mobility gaps for rural residents. This study examines the potential of AV-based ride-sharing services to address these mobility needs by providing flexible, demand-responsive mobility services where fixed-route transit services are either economically or operationally …
