Download or read book Exploring the Possibility of Mass Transit in the Urban Core of Kathmandu Valley Nepal written by Gaurav S. Thapa and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal and its surrounding urban agglomeration accounts for approximately one twelfth of the entire population of Nepal and continues to grow at an annual rate of 5.2 percent. The growth rate per year for the decade between 2001 and 2011 has been a staggering 63.7 percent. This rapid unplanned population growth has resulted in significant problems such as congestion, environmental pollution and severe traffic gridlock. This study evaluates the possibility of installing a Mass Transit (MT) system in Kathmandu Valley by examining the installation and implementation of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) in other parts of the world. Using census data and GIS I specify centroids (point of origin for a trip) within the 35 wards of he city and then use population as a surrogate for potential trips to be made. With the additional use of the Gravity Model I identify the flows between centroids and the destinations of trips. The study augments the results from the Gravity Model by using satellite and aerial imagery. Aerial image interpretation helps us understand the condition of the current road and shelter infrastructure at these specific sites. Based on the results from the gravity model and additional information from other Asian cities, where travel surveys have been accomplished, a two trunk system going north-south and east-west is proposed. In conclusion the study shows where the bus system should be placed maximize the number of riders and have the greatest potential for shifting riders from private modes of transport to public mass transit.

Book excerpt: This study was commissioned by The World Bank as part of the research to feed into the development of the Government of Nepal's national transport management strategy. The overall strategy vision is 'to develop safe, efficient and environmentally friendly transport'. Under the second pillar of the draft strategy which refers to 'management of road transport', there is specific reference to the particular needs of women in transport. The study took place between October and December, 2013 and comprised a review of secondary data and the collection of primary data via a questionnaire survey of public transport users in the Kathmandu valley, qualitative conversations and focus group discussions with users and non-users of public transport as well as key informant interviews with transport operators, police and relevant Government department staff and supplemented by participant observation. The questionnaire survey was carried out with 470 people (60 percent women) and qualitative conversations involved a further 165 (58 percent women). The questionnaire was administered 'in situ' as people were commuting on public transport at different times of the day and on different transport routes in and around the city.
