Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering that the study of public transport is important since it affects all citizens and is essential for the wellbeing of any nation, this paper reports the results of an exploratory study conducted in Johannesburg, South Africa among a convenience sample of 902 commuters selected using the commuter intercept survey. In contrast to traditional service quality research which uses the SERVQUAL instrument, this study used RECSA, which constituted the following transport service quality attributes: reliability, efficiency, comfort, safety and accessibility. It became evident that with regard to public busses and mini-bus taxis, all RECSA service quality variables are important to commuters. In summary, min-bus taxis were perceived as being less comfortable and less safe and less reliable, yet their services were being used more than more frequently.The findings have implications for service providers, transport planners and relevant government authorities, etc., in that they need to take cognizance of the perceptions of the commuters and implement strategies to improve the situation.
Download or read book An Overview of Public Transport Services in Johannesburg South Africa written by Vilakazi Ayanda and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The benefits of a well-planned and efficiently managed transportation system spreads far beyond the transport field, as it is essential for industry, for people's mobility, and for good communications. Passenger transport is a public utility, and the benefits derived will be realised only if the system is planned and regulated so that all members of society benefit from it. This book provides an overview of public road transport in Johannesburg, which is a world class African City located in the economic hub of South Africa. More specifically it sketches how public transport is managed in South Africa with some international comparisons. A brief discussion of the structure and systems of public transport is followed by a discussion of two primary modes of public transport, namely bus and mini-bus taxis, and transport service quality. The final chapter provides empirical evidence of commuters' perception of bus and minibus taxi service quality in Johannesburg.

Book excerpt: Containing studies from all over the world Urban Transport XXII consists of papers presented at the 22nd International Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment. The conference has been successfully held annually since it first started in Southampton in 1995. Transportation in urban areas, with its related environmental and social impacts, is a topic of significant concern for policymakers in both municipal and central government and for the urban citizens who need effective and efficient transport systems. Urban transport systems require considerable studies to devise and then safeguard their operational use, maintenance and safety. Transportation systems produce significant environmental impacts and can enhance or degrade the quality of life in urban centres. A distinctive element of the Urban Transport and the Environment series is the interaction between academic and practical perspectives where theories and ideas are debated and their practical applications rigorously tested. Clearly the issue of providing effective and efficient transport systems in the urban setting remains an acute challenge with financial, political and environmental constraints limiting the ability of transport system planners and operators to deliver the high quality outcomes expected by the public. Topics covered include: Environmental impact; Environmentally friendly transport modes; Transport strategies; Public transport systems; Transport modelling; Urban transport simulation; Transport safety and security; Infrastructure; Intermodel transport systems; Port and airport cities; Land use and transport integration; Transport policy and regulations; Experiences from emerging countries; Non-motorized transport models; Intelligent transport systems; Electromobility; Mobility and urban space; Sustainability and resilience; Emerging transport systems; Energy efficiency.
