Rail demand management: towards developing effective strategies for extended mega urban regions in Malaysia

Rail overcrowding has been associated with a number of negative consequences, including psychological stress, adverse health effects, negative behavioural reactions, and spillover effects. Despite the seriousness of this issue, there is little consensus on the appropriate demand management strategie...
