Abstract

The primary objective of this paper is to propose a framework for developing a measure of public transport congestion relief. It is suggested in this paper that none of the measures of traffic congestion provides information on how much traffic congestion is relieved by public transport. In addition, previous studies related to traffic congestion relief have not quantified the relationship between the presence of public transport and the amount of traffic congestion of a city. The paper aims to develop a systematic and comprehensive approach for establishing a measure of the congestion relief impacts of public transport.
