Composite traffic is a hypothetical traffic system based on large-scale demand-responsive public transportation. The basic idea is to aggregate a major part of urban personal trips into taxi-like vehicles. A vehicle is shared by people that have the same origin and destination, thus increasing the effectiveness of the transportation compared with taxis. In practice, the composite traffic is clearly more cost-effective, if a large part of passengers are willing to make one change during the trip. A change increases the flexibility in the aggregation.[1]

- A report on Finnish demand-responsive public transportation in non-urban areas, published 12 Sept 2008. According to the report, all people should have a right to basic public transportation. The basic right would be two visits to a nearby town per week with the cost of public transportation to the user. This basic travel guarantee would cost ca. 11 million €/a.
