This project, completed at WPI in collaboration with the Straeto bus company in Iceland, identified methods to improve Straeto's bus system to better serve university students during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. Based on interviews with Straeto employees, a focus group of international students, and a survey of Reykjavik area university students, we provided recommendations to guide Straeto towards more efficient and customer friendly services.
