According to an aspect of the invention there is provided a method of optimizing a fixed route on a transit network, comprising the steps of: a) permitting a vehicle providing service on the fixed route to make deviations from the fixed route based on passenger requests for said deviations received from passengers on said vehicle; b) tracking the deviations and number of passenger requests corresponding to each deviation; c) submitting information from tracking step b) into a decision- making algorithm executing on a computer system; and d) modifying the fixed route to include new stops based on results from the decision-making algorithm, as well as a system for implementing this method.

Un aspect de l'invention concerne une méthode d'optimisation d'un réseau de transport à parcours fixe, laquelle comprend les étapes suivantes, soit : a) permettre à un véhicule assurant la desserte du parcours fixe de s'écarter de celui-ci en fonction des demandes de dérogation des passagers dudit véhicule; b) faire le suivi des dérogations et du nombre de passagers qui en font la demande, dans chaque cas; c) produire des renseignements pour le suivi de l'étape b), lesquels seront introduits dans un algorithme de prise de décision exploité dans un système informatique; d) modifier le parcours fixe pour y intégrer les nouveaux arrêts conformément aux résultats de l'algorithme de prise de décision, ainsi qu'un système pour la mise en ouvre de cette méthode.
