ABSTRACT

Boras City Transportation Corporation (BCTC) activity and development during all of the 1980s have been based on offering the municipality’s residents a public transportation service that is adapted to the market. BCTC’s range of transportation services for different target groups is to be oriented to demand and adjusted to need. One feature of the BCTC differentiated route network structure that has been particularly successful and attracted great attention is Service Route traffic. Different districts in the urban area are inventoried according to demography, topography, destinations of particular interest, etc. The goals are to adapt the Service Route to the elderly and handicapped and see to it that the special demands these people place on public transportation are met. It is probable that the number of STS-entitled people is greater than that which was registered in the count that the people conducted.
