Title: ESTABLISHING CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIPS FOR DEMAND-RESPONSIVE TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
Accession Number: 00156122
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: As interest in demand-responsive transportation systems has grown, increased attention has focused on making use of the experience and resources of the private sector in providing these services. Recent experiences have shown that establishing satisfactory relationships between public agencies that want to foster these services and private operations may be difficult because of the different constraints and objectives that characterize the public and private sectors. An important part of such relationships is the contract that binds the two parties. The authors review recent contracting experiences; identify the goals, objectives, and constraints that characterize each sector; and suggest a contract framework that seeks to reconcile potentially conflicting objectives of the two sectors. /Author/
