Outline of Final Research Achievements

During the term of this grant, the researchers develop the survey methods for designing strategic mobility management measures in developing countries where current and potential private car/motorcycle owners are increasing and modal shift to MRT(Mass Rapid Transit) and BRT(Bus Rapid Transit) is strongly required. Based on the surveys in Manila (in 2012) , Ho Chi Minh City (in 2013 and 2014) and Lahore (2013 and 2014), researchers finally make a standardized questionnaire format to grasp intentions of using both public transport and private transport rationally focusing the service level of transport and images of each mode.
