Determining of passenger load factor for public bus transportation in Northern Peninsular Malaysia

Over the decade, Malaysia showed excellent improvement in upgrading social mobility as the country moving to become a developing nation. The important factor of social mobility that needs to be highlighted is transportation. Day-to-day activities require transportation to move from one place to anot...

description Over the decade, Malaysia showed excellent improvement in upgrading social mobility as the country moving to become a developing nation. The important factor of social mobility that needs to be highlighted is transportation. Day-to-day activities require transportation to move from one place to another.

This paper proposes to determine the passenger load factor specifically for public bus transportation in Northern Peninsular Malaysia. The number of passengers and the number of seats in a bus is needed to rate the passenger load factor according to their Quality of Service (QOS) from Transit Capacity and Quality Service Manual (TCQSM) 3rd Edition.
