“…Kar et al [25] noted in their study that road expansion increases traffic, but it is not the only factor that affects it. Other factors include an increase in population and vehicle fleet size, an increase in the volume of goods transported due to improved economic conditions, and a deterioration in the quality and availability of public transport in urban areas.…”

This study is aimed at evaluating the functionality of urban transport terminals in Elbasan City, identifying potential shortcomings in their modernization process, and providing actionable recommendations to enhance the quality of urban transit services. The study also investigates the challenges and impacts associated with transitioning from private vehicles to urban public transport systems within the city. Various research methods, including analytical, classification, functional, and statistical approaches, were employed. The research scrutinizes the unique aspects of the city's urban functioning and pinpoints the errors made during terminal modernization, further exploring their underlying causes. It also examined strategies to improve transport mobility. Analyzing the system's operation is crucial to understanding its effectiveness, growth, and the complexities associated with the shift from private cars to urban public transport in Elbasan. This research also evaluates urban transport terminal-related concerns, their importance in the context of urban transport, and their implications. Based on the findings, recommendations were proposed to address these concerns. The study's findings underscore the importance of enhancing urban public transport. It highlights that boosting the transportation potential is not only crucial for meeting the community's transportation needs but also plays a pivotal role in advancing logistics.

“…It has also been described as a “change-of-mode” facility by Gatens ( 8 ). Park and ride plays a pivotal role in providing access to sustainable travel options in less densely populated car-oriented communities and making them transit friendly ( 6 ). Park and ride has been associated with a wide spectrum of advantages as recognized in the literature.…”

“…In such a scenario, if park and ride facilities are introduced along the metro corridor, they can serve as suitable access modes by enabling the drive-alone users to park their vehicles at intermediate parking facilities typically located near transit stations, and ride to their destinations using transit ( 5 ). Moreover, park and ride may prove to be an appropriate urban travel demand management strategy because it reduces traffic congestion and demand for parking at destination locations because drive-alone users have partially switched to public transport ( 6 ). Park and ride can act as a potential instrument for ensuring sustainable mobility in urban areas.…”

Park and ride facilities can be a potential instrument for addressing the rising congestion problems and ensuring sustainable urban mobility in major Indian cities, equipped with fast and excellent metro systems. The present study attempts to understand the travel behavior of commuters (four-wheeled private vehicle users only) in relation to the introduction of park and ride as a sustainable and economical alternative mode of travel to driving alone in a private vehicle in the context of Delhi, India. The present study measures the perceived benefit to drive-alone users in Delhi with regard to their willingness to pay (WTP) for switching to a better-quality park and ride service instead of using their private vehicles. Choice-based responses along with socioeconomic and travel information were collected from 559 drive-alone users using a tablet-based stated preference survey instrument. The responses were then analyzed using a multinomial logit (MNL) model. Further, WTP estimates of the noncost attributes were calculated to derive the perceived benefit to drive-alone users if they were to switch to using a park and ride service. The study also developed a generalized cost (GC) equation using the parameter and WTP estimates derived from the MNL model. Finally, the study conducted a post-estimation analysis using the GC equation to examine the influences of identified explanatory attributes on the GC for drive-alone users who switched to park and ride. “Trip length,”“parking cost,” and “parking type” exerted a significant influence on the generalized cost, indicating that drive-alone users could expect considerable savings (perceived benefit with regard to utility gain) if they were to choose park and ride.
