A system and method for lobby crowd control dispatching in a multi-car ropeless lift (MCRL) system is provided. The method includes: receiving, at a controller (425), a call request for a transport device (414, 414N), in the lobby from a user using a destination device (436, 436N); generating, using a processor of the controller (425), a call assignment based on a crowd parameter; controlling, using the processor of the controller (425), the transport device(414, 414N) based on the crowd parameter; and transmitting, from the controller (425), the call assignment to the user using the destination device (436, 436N). The system includes a transport device (414, 414N) that arrives and departs from the lobby, a destination device (436, 436N) that receives a call request from a user for the transport device (414, 414N) in the lobby, and a controller (425) that is communicatively connected to the transport device (414, 414N) and the destination device (436, 436N).
