• Abstract:
  This report documents the background, implementation, and evaluation of Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County’s Mobility on Demand (MOD) Sandbox Demonstration project, Adaptive Mobility with Reliability and Efficiency (AMORE). AMORE sought to test a flexible service for commuting or first/last-mile connections to fixed-route service in the relatively high-income, high-vehicle-ownership communities of Rita Ranch, Civano, and Vail. Developed in partnership with private sector partners RubyRide and Metropia, the transit hailing solution was designed to meld the flexibility of a Transportation Network Company (TNC) with the efficiency of a fixed-route bus by grouping customers traveling in similar patterns and allowing quicker connections to the core transit system.
