Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract: The VanGO Alaminos to Dagupan Van scheduling, queuing, and booking system for convenience commuters addresses the challenges faced by van drivers, dispatchers, and commuters along the route, focusing on enhancing transportation efficiency and improving the overall travel experience. Using the Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology, this study aims to design and develop a strong system that integrates key features such as real-time updates on van locations, efficient route optimization, and reliable scheduling algorithms. Through interviews, observations, and literature review, insights were gathered into the commuting experience and operational challenges along the specified route. A purposive sampling method was employed to select respondents, resulting in a total of 50 participants including commuters and van drivers/dispatchers. The system's acceptance level will be evaluated using a Likert Scale survey questionnaire, and statistical analysis will be conducted to validate usability and performance. By addressing the inefficiencies in van scheduling, queuing, and booking processes, this study contributes to the improvement of transportation systems and enhances commuter satisfaction along the Alaminos to Dagupan route.
