A survey of the crew scheduling practices within the bus industry was conducted. Eleven undertakings in England and Scotland participated. A wide variety of fundamentally different practices was exposed. Users of computer methods for constructing crew schedules are most likely to be large operators of intensive urban services. In addition to this use as an operational tool, a very flexible program could find wide use, for example, in estimating the cost of altering scheduling rules. Apart from SELNEC PTE, no potential users of the RAE bus crew scheduling program were identified in the course of the survey. (Author)
