SUMMARY:GTFS-Flex: it’s adopted\, now let’s implement it!
DESCRIPTION:Help riders explore demand-responsive transport:\nLearn how to implement GTFS-Flex\nJune 4th\, 2024\, 11 am – 12 pm EST \n  \n📌 Sign up here! 📌 \n  \n👋 🚌 In this online event\, the MobilityData team will explain how to implement GTFS-Flex. \nGTFS-Flex has been officially adopted into the specification\, with record participation from our key contributors and the community: 46 organizations in 17 countries over 6 continents. We hosted multiple working group meetings and with the support of community contributors\, GTFS-Flex has been tested in real-world settings\, and then officially adopted in GTFS\, after eleven years of development. \n🎉 We’re excited to offer riders the value of flexible and accessible on-demand transportation with GTFS-Flex thanks to our community and contributors! \n  \n🛠️ Now it’s time to implement GTFS-Flex\, let’s discover how! \nHost: Tzu-Jen Chan\, Data Analyst\, MobilityData \nAgenda: \n\nHow to model use cases with Flex\nWho is implementing GTFS-Flex worldwide\nUse cases covered by Flex\nFlexible service features\nPresentation of free MobilityData resources\nQ&A\n\n  \n🧭 What is GTFS-Flex? \nImagine traveling in a new city\, and you’d like to reach a rural area that only offers an on-demand bus service. You check your preferred trip planner app and can’t find a viable public transportation option\, so you end up renting a car. It would be a shame not to use public transportation when it’s within reach. \nFlex is a part of GTFS that allows riders to discover Demand Responsive Transportation Services. This is especially exciting for rural transit providers who can look to start or expand flexible transit services with the confidence that riders can find those services more easily.
