Abstract

This paper deals with public transportation in tourism areas. A survey was carried out in Putuoshan, a famous scenic area in Zhejiang Province. By carefully analyzing the current transportation situations using the data collected, a new public transport---PRT, was proposed and feasibility of application was studied. The impacts of the PRT were evaluated using a microscopic PRT simulation model – Hermes. Simulation results showed that it is feasible to use this system, and some of its advantages were evaluated. Suggestions on the application of the system were discussed.
