An integrated taxi dispatching strategy namely the Advance Booking Chain Dispatching strategy (ABC-DS) is proposed in this paper, which aims to handle two types of commonly known taxi bookings: one is the Current Booking (CBK), the customer makes a booking call for a taxi that can reach him/her as early as possible; another is the Advance Booking (ABK), the customer makes a booking call and indicates the pickup time which is normally in half an hour or later. The microscopic traffic simulation is adopted as the modeling and testing approach for the proposed dispatching strategy, by which a sensitivity analysis in terms of different booking demands is conducted. The simulation results show that the proposed ABC-DS can give better operational performance in certain demand levels, which is potential to attract more customers to take the taxi by booking in advance and provide strategic implications for taxi operators.
