Strategic imperatives to improve accessibility, quality and safety of the land

Develop creative solution that improveAccessibility and sustainability

Passenger Safety A bus must be a pleasing, safe way to travel

Efforts to improve bus safety in Japan mainly focus on crash safety measures for passenger in frontal collisions.

To measure quantitatively the effectiveness of passenger protection measures for a large bus by crash testing

- Professional drivers generally have higher levels of training and experience, and by virtue of their profession have attitudes, which are more likely to promote safe driving.

-Driving a bus has been documented and classified as a highly stressful employment due to high conflicting demand and lack of control over work pace and driving situations (Dorn, Stephen et al. 2010).

-Professional bus driver must have higher levels of personal energy, enjoying the company of large groups of people, and being willing to try new things than shuttle service bus drivers.

-Working hours have been largely responsible for problems in physical health, work performance, safety and accidents.

-Bus drivers must have knowledge and skill of handling and maneuvering the bus he/she drive, the bus route, all regulations, standard and driving procedure and scheduling systems.

Public transport systems must also support national safety and security initiatives, particularly in high-traffic areas as transport interchanges.

PERCEPTION

1) 30 different service attributes ranging from punctuality and reliability were considered important to passenger and caused dissatisfaction if not delivery to a satisfactory standard, with the public transport organization deeming it important to try their best to meet passenger reasonable needs at all times (Samson and Thompson, 2007).

2) Passenger considers important cleanliness and comfort are the public transport variables that users valued most.

3) To make the quality of services provided by public transport operator more attractive, safe, conducive and affordable to the general public, thereby reducing the number of individual private cars on the road and also to reduce traffic volumes, the present study seeks to determine passengers’ satisfaction with the services provided by the public bus transport operators
