Popis: This paper outlines a management system developed specifically for linking commuters in Beirut, Lebanon, with shared taxis (also known as "service"). In this paper, shared taxis are the ones that have been registered with the Syndicate of Lebanese Taxi Drivers. The objective of the system, which was distinguished by the absence of fixed transportation schedules and pre-defined stops, was to create a comprehensive platform called "Platform to Promote and Optimize Collective Taxi Access (PCT)" that provided commuters with a variety of route options between selected departure and destination points. The route options were selected and categorized based on the preferences of commuters. In Beirut, the findings of the initial prototype were deemed efficient and adequate in terms of unimodal mobility and providing commuters with a customized travel experience.
