Abstract
Great amount of fund is allocated by the state and Central Government in public transport to eradicate if not fully than at least partly reducing the problem of urban congestion and thereby contributing to environment sustainability. The public transport adoption by commuters depends on their perception of service quality of public transport. Non-Commuters too have a negative perception related to ease and use of public transport which make them apprehensive about wide usage of public transport making them readily adopt the private transport. The paper analyses the perception of commuters thereby identifying the factors which causes the adoption of public transport. The data is collected through the structured questionnaire and the same is analysed through SPSS. The findings of the study crystallize the factors causing the adoption of public transport. The findings also relate to reasons for preference of BRTS vs. AMTS. The author acknowledges and is thankful for the research grants given by Central Government under IMPRESS scheme of ICCSR for the current research.
