Abstract:

This article discusses the use of index of elasticity of demand for a suburban road passenger transport in solving problems of organizing the transport of passengers in suburban traffic, and gives some of the results of our research in this area. The main aim of the study is to identify the impact of the fare on changes in demand for the services of a suburban road passenger transport. The use of statistical methods to assess complex objects allows consider the interests both carriers and passengers for the development of the transportation process of passengers in suburban traffic. This article discussed a way to assess the elasticity of demand for a suburban road passenger transport. The results of processing of field studies allowed estimating the amount of demand changes when you change the transportation fares. Identified fare limit that favorable to passengers of suburban transport takes into account interests both carriers and passengers during the organization of the transport process. This makes it possible to evaluate various design options of process parameters of the carriage of passengers in suburban traffic. The research results can be applied by transport specialists involved in the field of passenger transportation in suburban traffic. Author Biographies Тетяна Михайлівна Григорова, O. M.
