PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique capable of realizing safe boarding onto a vehicle.SOLUTION: A vehicle operation management system includes a communication terminal and a plurality of vehicles. The plurality of vehicles can communicate with the communication terminal and are capable of autonomous operation. The plurality of vehicles includes a first vehicle and a second vehicle. In a stepping-on area, in a case where the first vehicle is positioned at a head of a column, the second vehicle is positioned at a position next to the first vehicle in the column, and one boarding request is made from the communication terminal, a first notification unit of the first vehicle notifies that the first vehicle can be bordered, and a second notification unit of the second vehicle does not notify that it can be bordered. In the stepping-on area, in a case where the first vehicle is positioned at the head of the column, the second vehicle is positioned at the position next to the first vehicle in the column, and at least two bordering requests are made from the communication terminal, the first notification unit of the first vehicle notifies that the first vehicle can be bordered, and the second notification unit of the second vehicle notifies that the second vehicle can be bordered.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】車両への乗車を安全にする技術を提供する。【解決手段】車両運行管理システムは、通信端末と、複数の車両と、を有する。複数の車両は、通信端末と通信可能であり、自律的な運転が可能である。複数の車両は、第１の車両と第２の車両とを含む。乗車エリアにおいて、第１の車両が縦列の先頭に位置し、第２の車両が縦列において第１の車両の次の位置に位置し、通信端末から乗車要求が１つ有った場合、第１の車両の第１の報知部が、第１の車両が乗車可能である旨を報知し、第２の車両の第２の報知部は、乗車可能である旨を報知しない。乗車エリアにおいて、第１の車両が縦列の先頭に位置し、第２の車両が縦列において第１の車両の次の位置に位置し、通信端末から乗車要求が少なくとも２つ有った場合、第１の車両の第１の報知部が、第１の車両が乗車可能である旨を報知し、第２の車両の第２の報知部が、第２の車両が乗車可能である旨を報知する。【選択図】図１
