Transport Planning
 Mode of Transport
– Per 100 HH ‐ Private Car 27, Motor Cycle 146, Bicycle 64
• Preferred means of Transport
– To work: Motorcycle used by four times as many people than go by bike or walk (2nd and 3rd) – To shop: Almost equal number walk or go by motorcycle, almost 5 times those by bike (3rd most popular) – To school: Twice as many go by motorcycle than walk (1st and 2nd) and five times as many as go by bicycle (3rd)
– For recreation: Motorcycles twice as popular as private car and almost three times use of bus (2nd & 3rd) – Very few use the train

Also an institutional and organizational issue
 An organization of the operations better adapted to high capacity / high efficiency
 Buses: one main “big company” vs. grouping small operators?
 MRT/LRT/BRT: separated operator vs. common with the buses?
 Fare system and ticketing that do not discourage transfers during the trip (full integration?)
 Integrated passenger information, service coordination, common Operations Control Center?
Main bus routes
16 Source: MCDC / Roads and Bridges Dept The street today
 No clear hierarchy nor distinctions between streets
 All transport modes mixed on the same space
 Few continuous trees alignment
 Poor legibility, security, accessibility, quality of the public space
 Railway system insufficiently integrated in the transport network, low level of service
