“…As urbanization progresses, train operations continue to expand into the suburbs, attracting more commuters to the Central Business District (CBD), where job opportunities abound (Wang et al, 2018). According to Jarocka and Ryciuk (2016), "pricing has the positional of transforming customer behaviour while attracting new business potentials; therefore, it is necessary to recognize it as an enhancing factor of passenger satisfaction. Henn et al (2011) described a stated preference experiment that examined the effects of fare changes and faster trips as incentives.…”

Platforms are critical components of every rail travel. At the train station, passengers can take benefit of a variety of platform-based amenities whose satisfaction is prioritized. Rail services play a critical role in carrying people and products from point of origin to point of destination. People's mobility has accelerated in recent years, with the ultimate goal of earning a living. Numerous forms of transportation are available to promote accessible modes of transportation to people in diverse parts of the world, including road, rail, air, and sea. Rail transport has developed into one of the most important modes of transport in recent decades in Iran, which is experiencing an increase in demand for rail services. The objective of this research is to identify and rank the elements that influence people's willingness to travel by train. The statistical population is comprised of all passengers who travel by rail on a daily basis, which amounts to approximately 75,000 persons. The statistical sample size was determined using the Morgan table, which yielded 382 passengers. Four factors can be examined when determining whether to increase people's desires: economy, station conditions, journey time, and train conditions, with economy and train conditions being the most essential. The study's conclusions can assist commercial and public railway businesses in providing the required infrastructure and circumstances to boost passenger appeal.Keywords: Economics; Passenger’s Law; Rail Transportation; Station circumstances. Faktor Pendorong Penumpang Untuk Memilih Transportasi Kereta Api di Iran Berdasarkan Hukum dan Hak PenumpangAbstrak Platform adalah komponen penting dari setiap perjalanan kereta api. Di stasiun kereta, penumpang dapat memanfaatkan berbagai fasilitas berbasis peron yang mengutamakan kepuasan. Layanan kereta api memainkan peran penting dalam membawa orang dan produk dari titik asal ke titik tujuan. Mobilitas orang telah meningkat dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, dengan tujuan akhir mencari nafkah. Berbagai bentuk transportasi tersedia untuk mempromosikan moda transportasi yang dapat diakses oleh orang-orang di berbagai belahan dunia, termasuk jalan raya, kereta api, udara, dan laut. Transportasi kereta api telah berkembang menjadi salah satu moda transportasi terpenting dalam beberapa dekade terakhir di Iran, yang mengalami peningkatan permintaan akan layanan kereta api. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi dan mengurutkan elemen-elemen yang mempengaruhi keinginan masyarakat untuk bepergian dengan kereta api. Populasi statistik terdiri dari semua penumpang yang melakukan perjalanan dengan kereta api setiap hari, yang berjumlah sekitar 75.000 orang. Ukuran sampel statistik ditentukan dengan menggunakan tabel Morgan, yang menghasilkan 382 penumpang. Empat faktor dapat diperiksa ketika menentukan apakah akan meningkatkan keinginan masyarakat: ekonomi, kondisi stasiun, waktu perjalanan, dan kondisi kereta api, dengan ekonomi dan kondisi kereta menjadi yang paling penting. Kesimpulan studi dapat membantu bisnis perkeretaapian komersial dan umum dalam menyediakan infrastruktur dan keadaan yang diperlukan untuk meningkatkan daya tarik penumpang.Kata Kunci: Ekonomi; Hukum Penumpang; Transportasi Kereta Api; Keadaan stasiun

“…This is because it can alter a customer's actions and provide innovative market opportunities. Therefore, it should be acknowledged as an influential tool to promote user satisfaction and the firm's viability [19], which provides diverse and viable choices of pricing systems for the benefit of both the LRT operators and passengers.…”

This article primarily aims to understand how the Light-Rail Transport (LRT) pricing and infrastructural innovations from a Chinese context have been adopted to the Addis-Ababa city context. Secondly, it wishes to show what were the economic, social, and environmental effects of these adapted innovations on passenger service delivery and Multi-National Corporations (MNCs), and what effects the resident's proximity had on commercial activities along the LRT route. Thirdly, it identified re-adaptations to a more sustainable LRT with respect to the passengers, MNCs, and residents. This study has revealed economic, social, and environmental effects that may influence innovation adoption, such as the following: reduction in carbon emissions; fare evasion; inconvenience; affordability; less revenue; less proximity to commercial activities; and an increase in travel distances for pedestrians. A mixed method for a single case study was used, including semi-structured interviews with light-rail experts and a passenger survey. The results show that economic sustainability factors account for 12 out of 14 sustainability factors and 2 out of 14 social and environmental sustainability factors. The results are intended to be used as a decision support system for innovation adoption in other cities with similar context, in order to develop a sustainable approach to LRT planning.

“…Truck delivering or pickup of containers at the depots should be well managed in order to avoid congestion and unnecessary waiting times. Time intervals of service should be established and they can be priced differently in order to equally spread the truck arrivals over the planning horizon [11,12].…”

The Chinese project One Belt One Road, in Europe often referred to as the New Silk Road, triggers infrastructural investments enabling seamless transportation of goods on the Eurasian route. Since most of these goods are transported in containers, the optimal location of inland container depots, where containers wait for future repositioning after they had been emptied at the importers, is an interesting problem. In this paper conditions determining the optimal location of inland container depots in the Polish part of the NSR are analysed. They include proximity of container transhipment terminals located on the Polish stretch of the NSR, structure of highway network enabling distribution of containers by trucks to other destinations, as well as green aspects mainly referring to avoidance of city congestion caused by trucks transporting containers.
