The objective of this study is proposing the public transportation planning that increases frequencies for elderly people to go out in local area with new modes of transportation. And we verify feasibility and evaluate costs and convenience of the proposed public transportation. we use case studies of public transportations in Kamaishi city, Iwate prefecture and Wajima city, Ishikawa prefecture. In Kamaishi city, we simulate separating bus lines into trunk lines and branch lines to investigate trade-off relation between a transferring and transportation service by on-demand bus. and to confirm balance calculation. About Wajima city, we investigate the impact of golf cart driving on public roads by analysing video data and simulate converting public transportation from bus lines to golf cart to confirm balance calculation. As a result, about Kamaishi, the trade-off relation is resolved as a certain number of users and they hope to be able to use on-demand bus. In consequence of the cost simulation, spending is reduced by almost 5 percent. As a result, about Wajima, we reveal the impact of golf cart driving on public road. Automatically operated golf cart can be run by a half running cost of Noranke bus in consequence of the cost simulation.
