A study on the impact of advanced bus systems on companies located along the line

Abstract

In this study, we will take up Kyoto Rakunan Express (R'EX), which has been in operation since October 2010 and has been increasing in number of bus passengers for more than 9 years. Along with the record that the number of passengers continued to increase, we examined the factors behind the increase in the number of employees by companies along the line. As a result, it was clarified that there is a possibility that the town could be changed by enhancing the bus traffic such as enhancing the transportation capacity, improving the waiting environment for the bus, and introducing an in-vehicle monitor and a bus lotion system.
