Transit agencies are increasingly looking to custom transit services to serve transit markets, defined by geographic area or segment of the population or both, where traditional fixed-route transit services are infeasible or ineffective. Some of the various custom transit strategies include shuttles, circulators, feeder buses; Dial-a-Ride (paratransit) services; custom or subscription bus service; Personal Rapid Transit (PRT), Group Rapid Transit (GRT), worker/driver bus service etc. Source/Reference: WSDOT, 2000, pp. 11-12.
