Assessment of Transit Accessibility Through Feeder Modes and Its Influence on Feeder Mode Choice Behavior

Assessing Travel Time Performance of Multimodal Transportation Systems Using Fuzzy-AHP: A Case Study of Bhopal City

“…Automobile expansion is increasing a variety of concerns, including traffic congestion, environmental hazards, and the conversion of precious urban space for road widening and massive parking lots. In such a context, building sustainable modes of transportation capable of meeting citizens' mobility demands has been seen as one of the most effective approaches to address urban transportation issues [8]. Although rising traffic congestion, private vehicles remain the most desirable mode of transportation in developing nations such as India.…”

“…With the growing concern for health and sustainability in affluent nations, cycling has emerged as a competitive feeder option for access/egress excursions. However, the attractiveness of such an efficient feeder remains questionable in countries such as India due to a lack of infrastructure and safety [8].More in-depth studies of travellers' mode choice behaviour in multimodal networks are required to provide a solid theoretical foundation for more efficient transportation planning and policy-making in order to optimize mode splits in multimodal networks. While previous studies have examined travel times for individual modes of transportation such as cars, buses, or trains, there remains a gap in understanding how travel times across an entire multimodal transport system can be accurately evaluated and improved.…”
