“…Microtransit services play a pivotal role in enhancing transportation equity by serving various groups, such as shift workers, low-income individuals, the elderly, disabled, and underserved communities. For example, Transportation Disadvantaged Late Shift (TD Late Shift) [17] offered by Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) offers service to individuals with jobs that either begin or end between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. The service specifically serves those who have no other means of transportation and have annual incomes of no greater than 150% of the federal poverty level.…”

“…It promotes Good Health and Well-Being (SDG 3) by providing convenient and affordable transportation options that provide access to healthcare and reduce air pollution [15,16]. It supports Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8) by creating job opportunities in the transportation sector [17]. Microtransit provides affordable access to employment opportunities and regular access to healthcare, helping to reduce poverty (SDG 1) by improving economic prospects for individuals and families, ultimately making urban areas more sustainable and livable.…”

Lack of transportation services in low-income communities greatly affects people’s health and well-being, creating barriers to social determinants of health (SDOH). One potential solution that has gained the attention of US decision-makers in recent years is microtransit, a transportation intervention aimed at addressing this issue. Despite promising results from prior microtransit implementation, the extent to which these programs deliver social benefits remains uncertain. This study presents a novel model called Social Return on Investment System Dynamics (SROISD) to forecast the social benefits of a microtransit program in Holmes County, Mississippi. The SROISD model identifies the scope and key stakeholders, maps outcomes, and gives outcomes a value. A causal loop diagram is developed next based on mapped outcomes and a literature review, thereby conceptualizing the processes through which social benefits are gained from the microtransit program. Three stock and flow diagrams are then created from the causal loop diagram to formulate the system and produce results. Outcomes mapped relative to three SDOH areas (1) accessing healthcare, (2) accessing employment, and (3) social participation indicate an overall positive return from investing in microtransit within the low-income community of interest. Additionally, ridesharing demonstrates a significant positive correlation with the SROI ratio. These findings offer support for the advantages of investing in microtransit. Additionally, the SROISD methodology offers decisionmakers a dynamically responsive approach that integrates traditional return on investment methodologies with system dynamics to explore social benefits across a variety of impact categories.

This paper presents the main results and the details of methodology and control equations for a single phase 150kW pre-regulator rectifier for trolleybus system. The proposed structure allows Power Factor Correction (PFC) with low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in the current and in agreement with IEC 61000-3-4 international standards. The results presented in this paper come from a Research, Development and Innovation (R&D&I) project with AES Eletropaulo
