はじめに

家用車とバスの間の中間的な交通手段という意味でのパラトランジットと称される乗り物、
これらが実際には、相当度に工夫されて活用されている。ただし、全般的には、そのよう

家用車への憧れが強いことも否めない。
このように、決して単純ではない状況の下で、我々は、開発途上国の持つポテンシャル

BRT は、地下鉄やモノレールなどの軌道系に匹敵する輸送力や速度性能を有しており、

以上をまとめると、

第2章
2.1
調査技術の改良
はじめに
BRT に限らず、当該地域で未知の交通手段を導入する際には、さまざまな課題が発生す
る。例えば、ジャカルタ市での BRT 導入では、先進例としてコロンビアのボゴタ市から多

施設導入に際しての技術的な課題とともに、その需要予測でも問題は大きい。新しく導

予測することはできるが、いざ開業すると過大あるいは過小評価となっている場合もあり、
それは、何も開発途上国だけではなく、わが国でも数多く経験している。典型的な例とし
ては、地下鉄導入の場合での、上下移動の負荷を嫌って、バスから転換せず、あるいは自
家用車へと転換する層の存在や、乗継の抵抗が需要に影響する場合などをあげることがで

利用意向を尋ねるアンケート調査をもとに、将来の利用者数を予測することも頻繁に行

しかしながら、その前提は、回答者が、新しい、未知の交通システムをきちんと認識し
ていることであり、その意味で、アンケート調査をする際には、調査票においてどのよう
な説明がされているかは重要な条件となる。曖昧な説明の結果、新しい交通システムを過
大に評価する場合もあれば、過小に評価する場合もある。さらに、その説明がどのように
認識されるかは、説明を受ける側の教育水準や知識水準にも左右される。多くの先進国の
ように、教育水準や知識水準に大きな開きのない場合はまだしも、一般的な開発途上国の
ように、識字率が決して高くなく、教育水準や知識水準にも大きな開きのある場合には、
調査票の設計にはより慎重にならざるを得ない。
以上のような背景をもとに、ここでは、調査票の改良の効果を検証した。前章でも触れ
たように、対象は、BRT である。ここでの検証では、開発途上国の代表としてスリランカ
を取り上げ、同国の人口最大都市コロンボ都市圏での BRT 導入の意向調査を実施した。

調査概要
調査では、BRT の説明における配慮、特に言葉だけの簡便な説明の問題を把握すること

2.4 まとめ
以上の検討結果より下記の結論を得た。
① 画像添付調査のほうが回答率が高い。
② 画像添付調査に基づくモデルのほうが精度が向上する可能性があり、かつ BRT の選好
率も高まる。
③ 多肢同時選択より 2 肢逐次選択のほうが BRT についての説明効果を向上させ、BRT の
選択率を高める可能性がある。
また、それ以外に、調査作業から得られた 2 つの点も指摘しておく。
④ 個人属性を加味したモデルでは特に選択肢の逐次提示の影響が大きくでる。
⑤ 訪問留置きで記入を待つよりは、調査員がその場で回答者に直接インタビューのほう
が世帯で歓迎され、回答内容の信頼性も高まる。
これらの観点をまとめると、BRT の利用意向について開発途上国で新規に選好意識調査

構成が複雑な状況下(=開発途上国都市部)を仮定すると、画像プラス 2 肢選択で、直接

ワークショップ参加者データに基づく態度変容の分析
(1)実験の概要
今回のワークショップ実験は、途上国における交通専門家の、BRT に対する態度変容の
可能性を検討するものであり、具体的には、以下の 3 つを評価することを目的としたもの
であった。
① 専門家が、BRT に対する住民意識を把握する事の効果は?
② 専門家が、BRT 導入についての実務情報を理解することの効果は?
③ 専門家が、BRT 導入を具体的に地図上で考えてみることの効果は?
なお、態度行動変容研究の述語を用いるなら、①および②は、事実情報提供法と呼ばれる
心理的方略に対応し、③は行動プラン法と呼ばれる心理的方略に対応するものである。
ここでは、この目的の下、先述のワークショップにて得られた心理データを用いた分析
結果を報告する。
なお、以下に示すデータは、バンコクでのワークショップの第一回と第二回の双方に参
加した参加者 20 名と、コロンボでの第二回目のワークショップに参加した 25 名から得ら
れたデータである。また、本ワークショップは複数の段階から構成されるが、それぞれの
段階の名称を表 3-1 の様に呼称し、それぞれでの測定指標を表 3-2、表 3-3 に示す。

(2)「住民意識」についての事実情報提供法の効果分析
住民意識についての事実情報提供法効果は、(1st Exp.)と(2nd Exp., phase. 1)との間の比較
によって検証できる。それ故、ここでは、パネルデータが得られているバンコクのデータの
みに着目すると、
「BRTを住民が使うであろう」
「BRTを是非導入したい」という二つの尺度
が有意に向上する一方、
「BRTの導入は難しい」という尺度が有意に低下している様子が確
認できた。このことは、交通専門家は、住民のBRTに対する実際の態度を「過小」に見積も
っている一方で、実際の態度調査結果を把握することによって、その過小認知が是正され、
住民がBRTの利用を望んでいることを理解する事を通じて、BRTの導入について肯定的な認
知が形成された、という結果を反映したものであると考えられる。

ついては、

(4)「BRT の導入場所検討」についての行動プラン法の効果分析
BRT の導入場所検討についての行動プラン法の効果は、(2nd Exp., phase.2)と(2nd Exp.,
phase. 3)との間の比較によって検証できる。コロンボ、バンコクの双方の結果に着目する
と、バンコクについては、大半の心理尺度について肯定的な効果があったことが統計的に
確認された。すなわち、BRT を住民の位置を検討し、地図上に描くという行動プランの検
討を通じて、BRT は快適で楽しく、必要であり、使いたい/使おうと思うと本人も感じ、
住民も使う BRT を毎日使うだろうと思うようになった、そして、BRT の導入は難しいと
いう意識も低減する一方で、BRT の導入に努力をしようと思う・導入を願うという意識が

強くなることも確認された。この様に、バンコクでは非常に大きな効果がみられた一方で、
コロンボにおいては、こうした効果は確認されなかった。コロンボで十分な効果がみられ
なかった理由は、本研究のデータからだけでは明らかではないが、コロンボにおけるワー

(5)一般の人々を対象とした場合の実験効果
なお、本研究では、同様のアプローチで、交通専門家ではない、学生等の一般の人々を
対象としたワークショップ実験を行っている。その結果を、表 3-4、表 3-5 に示す。なお、
一般の人々を対象としたワークショップにおいても、交通専門家の時と同様、コロンボで

さて、それぞれの心理的方略の効果についてみていくと、まず、住民意識についての事
実情報提供法の効果をバンコクのデータに基づいて確認すると、明確な効果がみられてい
ないことが示された。これは、交通専門家の場合とは異なり、自分たちの意識については、
データをみるまでもなく把握しており、そのデータをみたとしても、意識は変化しないと
いうことを意味しているものと考えられる。
一方、
「実務」についての事実情報提供法の効果分析については、BRT が大きな態度変
容効果がみられた。すなわち、バンコクにおいては、BRT を「利用しやすい」
「使いたい」
「人々は使うだろう」「この街に必要だ」という意識が活性化し、コロンボにおいては、
BRT は「快適である」「利用するのが楽しい」という意識が活性化している様子が確認さ
れた。ただし、バンコクにおいてもコロンボにおいても、
「BRT を導入することは難しい」
という意識も同時に向上していることも示された。すなわち、実務的な事実情報をきちん
と把握することで、一般の人々(今回の場合は、多くは学生)は BRT の導入の実務的な難
しさを理解する一方で、その有用性を理解し、是非とも導入したいという意欲が向上した
という様子が示された。
最後に、交通専門家の時には非常に大きな効果がみられた BRT 路線に関する行動プラン
法の結果に着目すると、一般の人々については、一部、肯定的な態度変容効果がみられた
ものの(バンコクでは「BRT を使おうと思う」という意識が向上し、コロンボでは「BRT
の導入は難しい」という意識が低下した)、むしろ、逆効果がみられるという結果となった。
バンコクでは、BRT は「必要だ」「この街に導入すべきだ」という気持ちが低減し、コロ

ンボでは、BRT は「快適である」
「楽しい」という気持ちが低減している様子が示された。
(6)おわりに
ここでは、BRT の導入に対する意識や意欲の向上を意図したいくつかの心理的方略を組
み合わせたワークショップの効果を報告したが、一般の人々と、交通専門家の間に、それ
ぞれの心理的方略の効果に相違が存在する結果となった。すなわち、交通専門家にとって
は、BRT の路線の具体的場所の検討を求める行動プラン法が最も大きな効果を持っていた
一方で、一般の人々には、そうした行動プラン法はかえって逆効果をもたらすという結果
となった。一般の人々には、実務的な側面についての具体的情報を提供するプレゼンテー
ション(実務についての事実情報提供法)が最も大きな効果が得られるという結果が得ら
れた。
これらの結果は、発展途上国の都市にエコロジカルな交通システムの導入を検討するに
あたって、一定の示唆を与えるものではないかと期待されるところである。

うに導入していくのかを、具体的なシナリオとして提案することにある。
したがって、検討の前半では、世界の中で BRT の導入に成功している都市を対象にレビ
ューを行い、成功の要因が何かを整理した上で、アジアの国々でそれらの条件を満足でき
るのかを検討した。また、条件を満足出来ない場合に、有効と考えられる方策を提案した。
後半では、提案した方策を具体化する上で必要となる基礎的な情報を得るために調査を実
施し、それらの分析結果を組み入れた方策の組み合わせからなるシナリオを設定した。さ
らに、交通需要推計モデルとミクロ交通シミュレーションを用いて、それらのシナリオの
評価を行った。
4.1
BRT 導入の成功の要因
ここでは、クリチバやボゴタなど BRT の導入に成功してきた都市における政策を分析し、
その成功の要因を整理した。
その結果、何れの都市においても、BRT の導入に成功した最も大きな要因は、交通体系
の整備を土地利用計画と統合化すると同時に、他の交通機関も含めた包括的な交通ネット
ワークを戦略的に形成する明確なビジョンやマスタープランを策定したことを指摘した。
そして、交通ネットワークや路線の設定が戦略的になされた後では、以下の要因が BRT
導入に成功する上で必要であることを指摘した。
(1)戦略的な土地利用、都市計画の存在
乗用車から BRT への転換を促し、交通渋滞を緩和すると共に BRT への十分な需要を確
保するためには、BRT を交通の軸とする回廊を設定し、公共交通指向型開発の考え方を
取り入れた都市開発施策を実施し、高密度な沿線を形成する必要がある。
上記のような都市開発を可能ならしめるために、強力な土地利用コントロールを実施す
る必要がある。
(2)十分な道路空間の確保
BRT を平面で導入する場合は、片側一車線を専用軌道として利用するため、一般交通
のための交通容量を減少させる可能性が高い。したがって、導入区間は広幅員の街路を対
象とするか、あるいは、既存車線において有効な車線利用を行うことで、一般交通への影
響を最小限にとどめる必要がある。
- 24 -
(3)利便性、快速性のための工夫
BRT の魅力を挙げるためには、料金収受を駅で行い、乗り降り時間を削減することで運
行速度を上げることや、端末交通や他の公共交通との乗り継ぎ利便性を改善する必要があ
る。これを具体的に行うためには、ターミナルやバス停の適切な整備が必要である。
また、運行速度の向上と共に運行時刻の信頼性を上げる必要がある。そのためには、他
の一般交通との交差が避けられない交差点部などにおいて、優先信号などを導入して運行
を高度化させる必要がある。
(4)計画者、住民の理解
BRT は、バスではあるが軌道系に匹敵するエコロジカルな交通機関であるとの認識を広
め、導入に対する住民の受容性を高める必要がある。
4.2
BRT に対する受入れ環境
アジアの都市の状況を、公共指向型開発の考え方を取り入れて戦略的に BRT を導入する
ことに成功した都市と比較すると、既にスプロール化した市街地が広がっているなど土地
利用状況が大きく異なっている。また、交差点での特殊な交通運用やパラトランジットの
走行など、地域特有の道路交通状況もある。これらの状況を前述の成功の要因と比較して、
アジアの都市で BRT を導入する上での課題を整理した。
(1)戦略的な土地利用、都市計画の存在
アジアの多くの都市では、既にスプロール化が進行しており、計画的に回廊を設定して、
高密度な沿線開発を行うことが非常に難しい状況である。
伝統的土地保有の制度が残っており、土地利用規制が弱く、土地利用をコントロールす
ることが難しい。また、都市計画もその役割が不十分で、戦略的な開発を行うことは難し
い。
(2)十分な道路空間の確保
既存の道路網においては、片側 2∼3 車線程度の幹線道路も多く、BRT の導入が計画さ
れているような道路区間でも、道路空間は狭隘である場合が多く、導入の障害となる可能
性が高い。また、車線利用も不適切な区間が多く、整備が必要である。
(3)利便性、快速性のための工夫
これまで都市近郊鉄道の整備が進んでこなかったため、駅を中心とするターミナル開発
が殆ど行われていない。また、現在も路線バスなどの端末で、多くのパラトランジットに
- 25 -
よる乗り合い交通サービスが提供されているが、図
4-1 にある通り、歩道を占有するような形で設置さ
れており、適切な乗り継ぎ空間が整備されていない。
信号制御も一部を除いては未だに警察官が運用を
手動で行うなど、高度化していない。また、交差点
での右折の禁止や本線上での U ターンなど、特殊な
交通運用が行われており、車線は適切に利用されて
いない。
図 4-1 客待ちの様子
(4)計画者、住民の理解
これまでバス交通は、安い運賃で庶民の足として運行され、低コストゆえにサービス水
準は低く、また一般交通の渋滞に巻き込まれるため運行速度も遅いとして、否定的に認知
されていると考えられる。そのためバスを使う BRT に対しても、その機能を十分理解する
ことなく否定的に捉えられる可能性が高い。
4.3
ASEAN 型 BRT 導入シナリオの検討
(1)戦略的な土地利用、都市計画の存在
アジアの多くの都市では、前述の通り、都市圏が拡大し、既にスプロール化した市街地
に路線を計画する必要があるため、高密度な沿線を形成することは非常に困難である。し
たがって、密度の高くない市街地から効率的にアクセスできるよう、端末交通を計画的に
整備することを提案する。特に、アジアで広く利用されているパラトランジットによる乗
り合い交通機関を、端末交通として計画的に整備することを提案する。
(2)十分な道路空間の確保
道路空間が狭隘な区間や複雑な運用が必要な交差点部では、部分的に専用軌道を立体化
して対応することを提案する。また、車線運用に関しては信号制御の高度化などと連携し
て見直しを行い、安全かつ効率的に運用されるようにすることを提案する。
(3)利便性、快速性のための工夫
BRT の利便性の確保のため、
(1)で述べたパラトランジットによる計画的端末交通の整
備に合わせて、簡便な交通広場を有するバス停や交通ターミナルの整備を提案する。同時
に、駅での料金収受システムの導入も提案する。また、(2)における車線の運用の見直し
や立体交差化と合わせて、バス優先信号の導入を提案する。
(4)計画者、住民の理解
- 26 -
BRT の導入に対する計画者や住民の理解を得る取り組みに関しては、既に 3 章で詳細に
述べてきた通りである。
4.4
パラトランジットの端末交通としての計画的利用の可能性に関する概要
(1)パラトランジットの実態調査
4.3 の(1)で提案した、パラトランジットによる乗り合い端末交通を計画的に整備する
施策を検討する基礎的な情報を得るために、パラトランジットの実態調査を実施した。本
調査では、バンコク首都圏局によって計画されている路線の中で北線と呼ばれる、チャト
チャックパークからカセサート交差点を経由してナワミン道路まで至る BRT 路線を想定

Questionnaire to evaluate Public Transportation
Development necessity
Associate Professor:
Toshiyuki Okamura
The Transportation laboratory of Yokohama National University, Japan is carrying out a
surveying about the travelers along Gale road (connecting Panadura ~ Colombo Core:
Pettah).
We are trying to understand how people feel about the existing public transportation and
their attitude on implementing new better transit system called Better Rapid Transit
(BRT: you will see what is BRT in later part of this document). By taking few minutes to
complete this questionnaire, you will be helping us to ensure that this corridor will be
more comfortable and time saving on your next, near future, trips.
The questionnaire requires you to record data about your preference among different
options given to you, and some of your personal, household, and vehicle ownership
information. We assure you that any information declared here will kept confidential and
be used only for research purpose. Your completed questionnaire will be collected by the
survey team personal.

The Transportation laboratory of Yokohama National University, Japan is carrying out a surveying about the
travelers along Gale road (connecting Panadura ~ Colombo Core: Pettah).
We are trying to understand how people feel about the existing public transportation and their attitude on
implementing new better transit system called Better Rapid Transit (BRT: you will see what is BRT in later
part of this document). By taking few minutes to complete this questionnaire, you will be helping us to ensure

Note:
This study is interested in implementing Bus Rapid Transit (BRT : One of the comfortable transit system exist in many developed
cities)
As we don't experience such advance system it's difficult to imagine what is BRT, therefore brief description of BRT is given to you
prior to the question. Try to feel what is BRT
Using the information and some character of system given to you, you got to trade-off the choices and select the best of yours.
You are given few set of cases, each case have some choices of different public transit system. Carefully compare the choices and
select your most preferred system from each case.

Public Transportation Survey on Users Preference in Developing Countries.
PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SURVEY ON USERS PREFERENCE IN

Transport survey is inevitable in transportation field either at one or several stage(s) of
any of its related projects in describing existing conditions of transport phenomena or in
predicting models which forecasts future transport conditions due from any improvement
measures. Between surveying on the existing and expected conditions of transport, later one is
the most crucial and unavoidable in measuring future effects.
However, in developing countries, surveying undergoes more serious problem than
developed countries in terms of literacy, composition of people speaking a variety of languages
hence necessity of multilingual interviewers and conceptual translation than literal translation,
existence of wide variation in socioeconomic characteristics (i.e. literacy, income, etc.) therefore
inadequacy in sample to represent whole population, and lack of precise administrative
boundaries hence problematic in random sampling.
Considering these issues, an attempt was made to study the effect of questionnaire
structure and socioeconomic character variation based on public transportation users’ preference
by a paper based questionnaire surveying conducted at the study area, the city of Colombo, Sri
lanka. The survey was conducted using face-to-face interview by means of conceptually
translated questionnaire with clearly stated purpose of surveying on questionnaire by selected
interviewers, from trusted organization, who tagged their identity clearly visible to respondents
during survey conduction. The study observed that sampling all socioeconomic groups needs
more tactics and reluctant to express real information due to suspicious on survey purpose and
data usage. Therefore, adding road side intercept survey parallely and indirect information
gathering would be useful in covering all segment groups and in filling the gap between real and
responded information respectively.
Keywords: public transportation, questionnaire surveying, developing countries
1. Introduction
Transport survey is inevitable in transportation field either at one or several stage(s) of
any of its related projects in describing existing conditions of transport phenomena or in
predicting models which forecasts future transport conditions due from any improvement
measures. Surveying is an important element in transportation planning both in developed and
developing countries. Compare to developed countries, developing countries users’ behavior is
fluctuating and therefore it is hard to predict too. This is mainly due from unstable environment
in many aspects; rapid growing economy, people migration towards city centers, urban
population raises, and increase in traffic flow. Due to this instable life structure of the people in
urban cities of developing countries, questionnaire survey is most difficult and needs more
timely adjustments on its procedure too.
Different approaches made in developed countries are considered as proofing solutions
for the transportation related problems exist in developing countries. However applying their
- 127 -
concept directly to the developing countries generally may lead to failure as social, cultural,
economical, and life structure of individual citizens are completely different in developing
countries. It has been seen from many other cities’ experience that public transportation is the
key toll to shape the city (adjustment of land use) in long term plan naturally. Therefore
grasping users’ preference is essential to avoid failure of any policy or system implementation.
In the case of user’s preference on existing transportation system, the revealed-preference
surveying, where users are asked on system which they use presently, is common in practice.
On the other hand, if any new system designed to be implemented and expected users
preference on this future system are generally gathered by using stated preference survey.
Where the system will be stated to the users and question will be made based on the stated
choices. A preference surveying could be objected to identifying either existing or expected
preference of an existing or newly planned transportation system. Between these existing and
expected cases, the later one is the most crucial and unavoidable in measuring future effects. As
almost all of the modern system exist in developed counties are completely new to the users,
usage of stated-preference surveying is inescapable though it is obviously difficult to carry out
in developing countries. Attention is required during the process of migrating such systems
and/or concept to developing countries.
Not only preference surveying but also any kind of transport surveying in developing
countries undergoes more serious problem than in developed countries in terms of literacy,
composition of people speaking a variety of languages, Hence necessity of multilingual
interviewers and conceptual translation than literal translation, existence of wide variation in
socioeconomic characteristics (i.e. literacy, income, etc.) therefore inadequacy in sample to
represent whole population, and lack of precise administrative boundaries hence problematic in
random sampling.
Beside these all general issues and unstable environment, there is another consideration
specific to developing countries. That is wider variance in user’s characteristics. For an example,
income and literature level are distributed very widely. This phenomena demands more
segmental consideration and relevant respondents to represent complete set. When users’
preference made on a system based on “bus” then there is an unavoidable challenge to be faced
by planers in eliminating bad image of public bus on many users. Considering these all issues,
surveying questionnaires are to be designed strategically concerning its structure and how to
include all segmental variations of socioeconomic characters of the users into the surveying.
This paper made an attempt to study the effect of questionnaire structure and socioeconomic
character variation based on public transportation users’ preference by a paper based
questionnaire surveying conducted at case study area of Colombo, Sri lanka.
2. Public transportation and developing countries
In developing countries the income distribution is wider. Majority of the people falls into
low or medium income group. Job seeking population migrate towards city as the city centers
posses many different opportunities than other areas. Therefore population of cities grows
rapidly. Poor management of land use existence allows the migrants to settle informally which
left them behind proper transport access and leads them towards informal transport modes. On
the other hand, increase in income level increases motorization and car usage rate steeply.
Politicians declare promises on building new infrastructure just for their voting benefit without
make any in-depth analysis. Their decision always favor for high income group which creates
more and more car usage.
Public transportation is getting worse and worse with time and such cyclic worsening has
been named as vicious circle of degradation by Pulichino (2003) and depicted in Figure 1.
Planners and engineers are working for breaking this chain by proposing an appropriate policy
but many of the proposals set in the past were not placed in practice as they were not considered
urban form as an integrated structure and not given importance to separate public transportation
from general traffic mix. Nowadays, it has been learnt from various successful master planes
- 128 -
placed so far around the world that Land use and public transportation integration with their
own version tuned to their spatial characters will be the best solution.

2-1 Suitable transit system
Integrating Land use and public transportation are some of the major concerns in this era
to induce development to grow naturally and to shape the city more livable. Transportation and
Land Use Coalition (TLUC, 2006) has made many case studies on this issue based on developed
cities. Master plan with Line-haul transportations like Light Rail Transit (LRT), Automated
Guided Transit (AGT), etc has been believed to be functional in shaping the cities but capital
cost of these systems are bit unbearable for developing countries. That was the reason such
master plan has not been considered in developing countries.
Since from the success story of world famous model of master plan developed by
Curitiba, Brazil using bus transit system improvement (Bus Rapid Transit), many cities in
developed countries and specially in developing countries are now considering Bus Rapid
Transit (BRT) as the most feasible system for solving their ever growing transportation related
problem because of its numerous advantages like less capital cost, usability of existing fleets,
staged development feasibility, etc. These are the reason BRT system from Curitiba become
popular in developing countries nowadays. In Curitiba, Brazil, A bus system was developed as
an integral part of an overall master plan whose basic objectives was to include radial expansion
of the city along different structural axes radial outwards from the CBD, integrating land use
and transport, and protecting traditional city center (Yabe, 2004).
Recently there are numerous case studies on BRT elements, characteristics, and
comparison on existing systems. TRB Vol.1(2003) and Vol.2 (2003) compared most Latin and
north American cities as well some other world wide examples and showed up plenty of
advantages gained from BRT; travel time saving, comfortable ride and transfer, single payment,
frequent service and less waiting time, unique identity and less complexity.
The most attractive options possessed by BRT for developing cites are, as mentioned
above, less capital and operating cost, allowing staged development of the system, fast
implementation, flexible route selection, less additional land acquisition, improving
transportation related environmental impact, backbone land use development, flexible in
selecting and combining elements of BRT to form the best suiting system according to the
characters of the city selected, ultimately sustainable effective and efficient transportation to the
- 129 -
cities. Developing countries with high transit dependent populations and limited financial
resources have increasingly attempted the use of BRT systems (Leal et al, 2003). Among
recently implemented BRT system in Asian cities, TransJakarta, Indonesia has got focused
because many of other cities had prior experience about some metro type mass rapid transit. It is
the first BRT of this region and has been implemented in very short period of eight months, thus
lacks from feeder system and carries only about 8000 pphpd while total bus demand in that
corridor was about 12,000 pphpd (Hook, 2005). The authors tabulated some example cities for
BRT/Guided Bus system and their system name around the world in Table 1.

2-2 Issues in System implement
Even though BRT has seen as a suitable solution for developing countries as the system
name itself contains the term ‘bus’ and it makes citizen to image badly as experienced as
existing bus system. Therefore planners need to take strategic steps to wipe out the bad-image
they might have on BRT before bringing the system to users to get their opinion and preference.
Beside this bad-image, there is another issues awaiting for the planners in developing countries
that many of these cities have not yet been experienced any system like line- haul and it makes
planners difficult to make users understand and grasping their preference. In some developed
cities also such system may not exist but the awareness and knowledge on such system may be
expectable. Therefore it is necessary to define the system well and explain the system at first to
the users.
The system BRT has a wide meaning according to its elements considered and different
organizations defines in different way. For example, Diaz and Schneck (2000) defined BRT as
“distinct from conventional bus transit in a way, it combines technology, the operational plan
and the customer interface to create higher quality of service”. To make the system definition
simple, the authors categorize BRT into three types concerning developing countries’ capable
of stage implementation and users understanding (Table 2) and Type 1 has been used in this
research.

3. Changes need in surveying in developing countries
Surveying is inevitable in transportation field in grasping preference of users as
development has to come out with user’s opinion for avoiding any failure in system
implementation. When such system integrated with land use master plan, then it is very
important to include local public participation by engaging bottom-up-approach or some similar
tool in the decision making process. Therefore surveying to grasp users actual preference is
essential though it is expensive and time consuming.
Research on surveying methods has long history. It has been tried in developed countries
with several media of conduction starts from face to face interview to internet based and several
way of conduction starts from paper based to adaptive type (with laptop computers). Up to date,
the challenges in this research area are not relaxed as users preference survey deals with ever
changing human behavior with ever changing world and it is more challenging in developing
countries with rapid growing economy.
However in developing countries many of those surveying techniques are not feasible due
to its lack of development in several aspects. For an example, lack or non existence of sampling
frame (No well defined regional boundary) makes random sampling infeasible during surveying.
In many cases, mailing address and/or postcode is not at all systematic therefore mail back
surveying becomes impracticable. Therefore it is still necessary to go for very fundamental way
of approach of face-to-face interview type using paper based questionnaire. The authors have
listed up some of the common issues faced in developing countries in Figure 2 in questionnaire
surveying.

Figure 2: Common issues in questionnaire survey in developing countries
The confrontation exist in questionnaire surveying, due from above mentioned issues (1)
bad image of bus, (2) advance systems are very new to users, and (3) common issues mentioned
in figure 2, demands for more care when the surveying made on advance system. Advance
systems could also be called as new transit system (NTS) as those are very new to the users.
Such NTS call for hypothetical questionnaire settings as the system has not yet been
experienced by users.
- 131 -
3-1 Hypothetical questionnaire
The fundamental theories have been first developed in the field of economics/psychology.
Then the benefit of being able to elicit preference for a new alternative (a good that not exist in
market yet) has been studied and the concept has been transformed to transportation field.
Previously the data collection has been made based only on revealed preference (RP: preference
based on their experience) and nowadays hypothetical question setting especially stated
preference (SP: based on hypothetical scenarios developed on non existing system) has been
used alone or combined with RP type. Stated Preference (SP) technique has become an
increasingly common practice and among many recent SP studies made upon developing
countries, e.g. the one conducted in Yangon, Myanmar by Fujiwara (2003), Zhang (2003) with
few added techniques and assured the capability of SP.
Though hypothetical type questions are comparably flexible, it has more risks in
developing countries as the users are less experienced to general surveying and very less
exposed to SP type questions. There are numerous researches has been conducted on behavior
analysis and data collection technique but the majority of those researches are mostly
concentrates on fine tuning of modeling part. This has been pointed out by Richardson (2001)
that “to date, data collection process not commensurate well to fit to those well sophisticated
models developed so far”.

4-1 Questionnaire design and data collection
Considering the above mentioned problems this study has been designed to identify the
importance of questionnaire structure and to study the effects of (1) wide variation in user’s
characteristics and (2) Image of bus exist among users through conducting a preference
surveying on new transit system of BRT compared with existing bus. Colombo, the largest city
of Sri lanka, was selected as the case study area. The metropolitan region consists of 5.4Million
population (30% of country population) and 3,593sq.km land area. The main surveying had two
different themes. First one is a preference surveying carried out at a residential area based on
SP by comparing existing bus and BRT beside some RP questions including opinion question
on existing bus. The second one is opinion type questionnaire carried out at selected offices by
group surveying. Both surveying was carried out parallel at the same time of September 2006. A
systematically arranged form of explanation of system BRT has been presented in the
questionnaire sheet and in the PowerPoint presentation for residential and official surveying
respectively.
A pilot surveying was held in September 2005 and it has been found that adopted
instrument of drop-and-pickup method was found to be poor in response rate and respondents
were found to be suspicious about the organizations. Therefore during the final surveying at
residential area, face to face interview using paper based questionnaire was instrumented by
organizing with well recognized university at the study area and with interviewer from the same
university who tagged their identity clearly visible to respondents during survey conduction.
4-2 Analysis output
(a) Socioeconomic characters
From household personal interview surveying sample size of 188 completed
questionnaire sheets were collected. Socioeconomic characteristics of respondents from
household surveying has been depicted in Figure 3 according to the grouping and
notations used given in Table 3.

Figure 3: Socioeconomic characters of the respondents
It could be seen from Figure 3(a) that male participation is high, roughly double,
compare to female as mentioned under cultural norm issues. It is due to local culture
that female does not expose unless responsible man is available. Participant’s
distribution by age is very less from younger and elderly group. Therefore it is
important to note that reaching all segment groups is difficult in developing countries.
Also, it is common in developed countries that income fields generally left blank
or incorrectly responded. Similarly, in this surveying, 31% of non response for personal
income field was observed. As it is an expected behavior, household’s total income also
decided to ask and it’s found that total income comparably less in non-response rate. By
observing the vehicle ownership including motor-bike, it can be said that most of the
household does not own any vehicle and the percentage of vehicle ownership may
reduce further if motor-bike is excluded. Among car owned household, most of them
possess only one car and that car is shared.
(b) Image of Bus and BRT
In office based group interview surveying, officers opinion on existing bus and
BRT system, which was explained using PowerPoint presentation, was collected based
on some selected indices using ‘Likert Scale’ with five-points. Sample size of 88
completed questionnaire sheets was collected. Those indices and corresponding rates
from respondents for both existing bus and BRT is shown in Figure 4. It is become
clearer how badly users feel about existing bus system.

SEM has been build using LISREL 8.71 with a marginally small amount of data from
household surveying. The model become permissible with the following goodness of fit
statistics; RMSEA=0.098, GFI= 0.88, and AGFI=0.83. Almost all parameters are significant
except “Gender” in measurement equation. R2 values from socioeconomic character are found
to be very bad. It could be raised from concentration of its segment (i.e. 84% from middle age)
and others left behind its representation. Mode attributes were comparably acceptable among
observed independent variables (Xi). Among dependent observed indices (Yi), R2 values for all,
other than “Crowd”, are higher than 0.2 and all well fit to the line. Structural equations are also
well fit with fairly higher R2 value. The t-test of parameters calculated for “mode attributes” are
low.
According to the sign of socioeconomic attributes parameters, elderly people and high
income people possess comparably worse image on existing bus. Gender is invariant on image
of bus as the parameter of gender is almost zero. The sign of mode attribute variables expected
to be minus but only travel time of BRT (TTB) has got minus sign. Therefore, it could be say
that users could not distinguish travel time between bus and BRT. More awareness is necessary
among citizen before carrying out the surveying to pursue this issue.
5.
Conclusions
This study was designed to identify the effect of questionnaire structure and the effects of
wider variation in socioeconomic characters in developing countries by selecting Colombo,
Srilanka as a case study area. A preference surveying has been hold in September 2006 based on
introductory system BRT compared with existing bus. In general the SP surveying is placed
with selected alternatives and scenarios. In this surveying the system BRT has been explained to
the users for giving an overall idea about the system before the respondent has requested to
select their preference.
Covering all segments of socioeconomic groups into the surveying found to be very poor
and, household surveying has certain limitation in accessing all individual members but only
household responsible person. Therefore it is better to add destination based and/or roadside
intercept type parallel to household surveying. In road side intercept survey, interviewer has
more control on respondent selection and as the value of time is not much higher compare to
developed countries people may responds cooperatively.
Bad image of bus has been observed as a serious problem in developing countries. It may
be because of high usage of poorly serviced public transportation by higher portion population
regularly as they are highly depends only on those service. This bad image has been more
- 135 -
considerable among elderly people and high income grouped people because elderly people face
more trouble in access and high income people have alternative options respectively. In actual
practice, as academic reach has limitation by time, it is important to make users awareness about
the system well advance to the stage of surveying in order to grasp better response. It could be
only possible by making the decision as a whole by involving city planners, transportation
engineers, and politicians under a unique umbrella of decision making.
This study could be extended with surveying using different instruments implemented
parallely to increase the coverage from all segments of socioeconomic groups. If possible,
laptop computers can be employed to express more real image of new system BRT.

Abstract: Developing countries are nowadays considering exclusive or semi-exclusive transit
system implementation. Such systems need to be planned well; attractive to car-owners and
affordable to the transit captive users. Therefore, survey becomes essential to grasp preference
from all segments of potential users. However, in developing countries, their response for
questionnaire survey using hypothetical questions is less reliable because of users’ lack of
knowledge about such transit systems and trading-off in hypothetical questions. This study
aims to propose a systematic approach for questionnaire design in the contest of developing
countries. Two different surveys with hypothesis system (BRT for Sri Lanka) were conducted
for comparing: (1) System explanation ways of with and without pictures in questionnaire;
and, (2) Level of complexity of the hypothetical questions. This study concludes that, in
developing countries, questionnaires need to be attentive in questionnaires design. Even if
questionnaires are conceptually same, few structural changes affect users’ response
considerably.

1. INTRODUCTION
Cities in developing countries are facing severe transportation related problems due to rapid
growth in economy, urbanization as well as migration of people to cities. These countries are
nowadays started considering exclusive or semi-exclusive transit system like MRT, LRT, or
BRT as a solution to these problems. Such new transit systems (NTS) essentially need to be
well planned so that the car-owners (high income group) find it attractive and, at the same
time, it is also be affordable to transit captive users (low income people) because, possibly,
such NTS will utilize available road space or replace few existing services. Therefore, survey
is strongly needed and it must grasp preference from all segments of potential users.
However, their response from questionnaire survey using hypothetical questions, which is the
only one possible way to grasp preference on hypothesis system (not yet in operation), is less
reliable in developing countries because (1) Such systems are very new to users in developing
countries and they do not have knowledge about NTS; and, (2) Users are never/rarely
-137-
Proceedings of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, Vol.6, 2007
experienced with answering hypothetical questions (scenarios) and sometimes, even to
general questionnaire survey. There are many challenges which have to be considered in
questionnaire design with hypothetical situations as far as developing countries are
concerned. Three crucial items are focused by the authors in this study: (a) Variance of
respondents is large and therefore, covering all segment of group into the survey is
tactfulness; (b) Literacy meant by inexperience and/or lack of knowledge of completely new
transit system; and, (c) Literacy meant by inexperience and/or lack of understanding trade-off
situations exist in the hypothetical questionnaires.
Respondent variance is high thus behavioral difference is also high across segments.
Therefore covering all segments of potential users into the survey and grasping their response
is difficult, however, necessary. For an example, by income segment, majority of people
belongs to medium or low income group. Shifting these low income people from conventional
bus and switching the high income group from car usage to NTS is a significant and
necessary strategy. Questionnaire survey in developing countries faces many problems and
some of them are; illiteracy, unfamiliar terms associated with language, lack of sample frame
therefore respondent selection, social-religious-cultural norms, suspicious about the purpose
of survey, response reliability, and achieving users understanding without interviewer bias
(Jones, 2003).
Nowadays, considering the capability of handling hypothetical situation, stated preference
(SP) technique has become popular and is commonly used in the field of transportation on
implementation of NTS (Kuklys, 2002; D’Arcier, 2000 etc.). Sanko (2001, 2002) depicts
basics of SP in simple way and describes ‘choice-based SP’. Recently, there are some studies
made on developing countries based SP survey. Alvinisyah et al. (2005) also conducted SP
survey on Jakarta busways. Zhang (2003) and Fujiwara et al. (2003, 2004) carried out
hypothetical studies in Myanmar. These all studies are contributed more on model
developments than data itself. Overall, there are many studies done on hypothetical questions
and most of the works are credited to its model sophistication. Therefore, suitable approach to
grasp more reliable data is still lacking in academic research contest as far as developing
country are concerned. Richardson (2001) also describes that “to date, data collection process
not commensurate well to fit to those well sophisticated models developed so far”.
Therefore, this study attempts to develop a systematic approach for questionnaire design on
implementation of new transit system in developing countries to grasp users’ actual/reliable
preference. In developing countries, higher transit dependent population and limited finance
increasingly attract the system BRT beside its stage developments feasibility towards rail
based systems (Leal et al. 2003). This study considered BRT as a case system for the city of
Colombo, the largest city of Sri Lanka, as she is also considering BRT for near future. Though
there are many forms of SP survey design exist, in the field of transportation, the common
way of presenting SP scenario is giving a defined number of alternatives with some selected
attributes and their value.
In this study, modes of existing bus and hypothesis mode of BRT were considered and
compared, and the following attributes were selected with attributes levels of at most three;
travel time, fare, travel time variance, and comfort. Former two are very common and basic
attributes while the later two were considered due to the selected system of BRT which
clearly differs from conventional bus service in terms of punctual and comfort. Using these
attributes and their levels, alternatives were generated using design of experiment (DOE)
method. Then the scenarios were prepared by placing a set of four of those alternatives
-138-
Proceedings of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, Vol.6, 2007
generated by DOE. In order to explain the NTS (here BRT) to the respondents before they
attempt to face scenarios (hypothetical questions), the system explanation was given in the
paper based questionnaires prior to scenario page by comparing some system elements of
BRT with that of existing bus (E.Bus). By considering the aforementioned two main problems
(in the first paragraph), responsible for less reliable response, this study imposed two different
surveys for comparing; (1) System explanation way (Media) in hypothetical situation using
with/without pictures and (2) Two different level of complexity (LOC) in terms of number of
alternatives per each choice.
These surveys have been carried out along a potential corridor of Gale-Road in Colombo, the
largest city of Sri Lanka. In order to overcome the language barrier, the questionnaire has
been translated to all three official language of Sri Lanka (Singala, Tamil, and English). These
two studies were conducted in September 2005 and in September 2006 respectively at the
same selected study area.
2. WORLD IMPROVED NEW TRANSIT SYSYTEM AND BRT DEFINITION
There are many examples in developed countries for this kind of NTS. The authors tabulate
some example cities and its improved transit systems. Table 1 and Table 2 show some
examples for rail based system of LRT/MRT/Monorail in Asian developing countries and
BRT/Guided bus system around the world respectively.

Rail based systems are considered as superior transportation solution in many big cities.
However, in developing countries in general, many of these plans have not been executed yet
due to its unbearable capital cost. Recently, the BRT has become popular urban transit mode
in developing world as high-capacity and reliable transit system as rail based system with
much less capital cost. There is not huge difference between LRT and bus service with few
improvements on number of passengers carried on a single corridor (Yabe, 2004; Yabe, 2005).
There are numerous studies and review works starting from South American cities (Curitiba
and Bogota) to the recent BRT system in developing region (TransJakarta, Indonesia). They
all show their success stories and strategies (ITDP, 2003; Hook and Ernst, 2005). Though
there are many benefits proved on BRT over other mass systems, there are some key
considerations on its implementation in developing countries. Preparing proper master plan,
managing road space limitation, existing uncontrolled land use, and political issues are few of
them (Kenneth, 2000). Revealing these success stories, beside Table 2, the following cities are
currently in BRT planning process: Shanghai, Chengdu, Chongqing, HuaiAn, Xi'an, Xiamen
in China; Delhi, Bangalore, and Pune in India; Bangkok in Thailand (16.5Km); Colombo in
Srilanka; and Hanoi and Ho-Chi-Minh City in Viet Nam (Limanond and Pardo, 2006).
There are several definitions of BRT. For example, Diaz and Schneck (2000) defined BRT as
“distinct from conventional bus transit in a way it combines technology, the operational plan
and the customer interface to create higher quality of service”. Whereas TRB (2003) defined
it as “rubber-tired light rail transit (LRT) but with greater operating flexibility and potentially
lower capital and operating costs”. Definitions by many researchers and practitioners vary
broadly and according to its purpose. Walter and Matthew (2003) grouped BRT into four
stages of deployment based on examples from developed countries and their infrastructures,
but didn’t intend to define the BRT. Therefore, the authors categorize BRT into three types
based on developing countries’ capability of stage implementation and users understanding,
as given in Table 3.

3. SURVEY
3.1 Selected City: Colombo-A Comparison to Other Developing Countries
The city of Colombo, the largest city in Sri Lanka, has been chosen as a potential and feasible
city to study on newly implementing NTS. An overall country profile is given in Table 4 and
its shows the share of selected items of Colombo Metropolitan Region (CMR) over the island
of Sri Lanka.

Generally in developing countries, deviation in socio economic variables like literacy and
income are very wide but in the case of selected city of Colombo, the income distribution is
comparably narrow and gets concentrated peak in the middle. Its mean higher percentage of
people fall under middle class by income and less people fall either under high or low class of
income. Whereas the literacy (by schooling) of the people is considerably high (91.6% by
year 2002) compare to other South Asian countries. The literacy does not dictate
transportation related terminology and/or NTS knowledge. However, it is expected by authors
that, because of their higher literacy ratio, in Colombo, hypothetical questions would be
feasible using appropriate questionnaire design incorporating proper system explanation.
The bus service is provided by both government and private sectors and the number of busses
is not controlled. Therefore, enough buses are in operation and in fact cent-war (competing
and trying to earn every single passenger) exists like many other developing countries and it
leads to less waiting time for buses (at most 5min) but not in-vehicle time. Its very common
phenomena that public transportation mode share is high in developing countries as many of
the users are captive. In the case of Colombo, it is even more higher because even car owners
uses public transportation for their daily working trip due to high gasoline price and less fare
of at most 30Rs (0.3US$) from any city skirt.
Para transits exist in many developing countries as formal and non-formal mode of
transpiration and some of them are comparably attractive even among poor people for shorter
as well as emergency trips. Similarly, three-wheeler (called “Auto” in Sri Lanka and India) is
very common and easily available para-transit in Colombo and people use it quite often.
Some people use motorbikes too. Therefore, these para-modes could be turned out as feeder
services to main line (when planning for line-haul) to support feeder buses. In this way, the
mode can be shared and also, para-modes’ entrance into main line could be prohibited.
3.2 Study Area
The both household questionnaire surveys (Media and LOC) were conducted at Colombo,
along a potential corridor of Gale-Road, which connects Colombo core area (CBD) and south
suburban area called Panadura as shown in Figure 1. The selected corridor is the only one
major line from south suburban area to Colombo core. The section between Moratuwa (a city
along this corridor, as shown in Figure 1) and Colombo core suffers worst traffic jam during
peak hours, both in morning and in evening. That is the main reason this location has got
authors’ interest. The land use along this corridor is mixed with commercial activity and

residential areas. Regions of Dehiwale & Mt. Lavenia, as shown in Figure 1, were selected as
survey areas.

3.3 Methodology
Questionnaire design conceptually consists of many factors such as: questionnaire contents;
physical design; and types, format, wording, ordering, and instruction of question (Richardson
et al., 1995). Though survey design generally covers all these factors, in this study physical
design is given more weight. Based on this research hypothesis, two different alterations have
been planned. One is in system explanation way (Media) presented just prior to SP scenarios
in questionnaires. The other one is physical rearrangement of alternatives in SP questions in
such a way the apparent level of complex (LOC) of SP question has been rearranged. These
two studies were conducted in a time series of September, 2005 and September 2006.
Residents were asked to choose their preference based upon their trip to Colombo core
(Pettah) along the corridor from their household.
In the Media-study survey, a system explanation is given prior to scenarios, as previously
mentioned, with two different medias: (a) Written expressions alone (without-image); and, (b)
Same written expressions with relevant pictures also (with-image: Figure 2) to study the
media effect by comparing the existing bus (E.Bus) and the BRT elements. Therefore, in both
cases, the questionnaire is exactly same other than one is with image and another is without
image. The hypothetical questions were given with six scenarios. Each scenario carried four
alternatives (Scenario x Alternatives x Attributes = 6 x 4 x 4) as well as some other revealed
preference type of questions and personal attributes. In order to observe the system
explanation effect purely due from explanation media, this study used same questions for all
respondents (where SP design of this study modified purposely from typical SP in which
question are given randomly) and drop-and-pick-up technique to eliminate interviewer’s
verbal demonstration as it may intrude user’s preferences. A respondent receives either “withimage” or “without-image” type of questionnaire. From now onwards, this “with and without
image” comparison study will be referred as “Media-Study”.
-142-
Proceedings of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, Vol.6, 2007
In the LOC-study, in order to compare the effect of question complexity levels, in terms of
number of alternatives per each choice set. The hypothetical questions (SP) in the
questionnaire of this survey contain two portions. The first portion of the hypothetical
questions is similar to the previous survey where alternatives were selected in the same way
as before, but this time, travel time variation attribute excluded, as this attributed found to be
less familiar. Therefore, in this LOC survey, only three attributes (Travel time, Comfort, and
Fare) were included as shown in Figure 8. The hypothetical question was given with four
scenarios (reduced to four scenarios to manage the questionnaire length) with each scenario
carrying four alternatives (Scenario x Alternatives x Attributes = 4 x 4 x 3) as well as some
personal attributes. The second portion of the hypothetical questions has been designed by
picking one scenario out of four scenarios from the first portion (Figure 9). The four
alternatives of the selected scenario were rearranged to form a sequence of pairs (similar to
binary choice game cards). Therefore, one scenario (one choice out of 4 alternatives) will
make series of pairs (4 pairs; 4 choices). Because of questionnaire length, in this survey only
one scenario has been rearranged and compared. In the first portion, four alternatives were
given simultaneously per scenario whereas, in the later portion, sequences of pairs were
given. The levels of complexity assumed to be depends on number of alternatives per scenario
(trade-off complexity). Thus, first portion is assumed to be complex while second portion
apparently less complex respectively for respondents to choose. These two LOC are named as
“simultaneous-set” and “sequential-pairs” in this paper. A respondent receives both
simultaneous-set and sequential-pairs. From now onwards, this simultaneous-set and
sequential-pairs level of complexity comparison study will be referred as “LOC-study”. In
this survey, the selected media of “with-image” was adopted to explain the BRT system prior
to both of these SP structures.
4. MEDIA-STUDY SURVEY
4.1 Questionnaire Design
The system explanation was made by comparing the existing bus with BRT based on ‘type 1’
BRT from Table 3. Figure 2 shows the system explanation page of questionnaire presented to
the respondents before the hypothetical questions (scenarios). As mentioned above, the
system (BRT) explanation is made in two different media of with-image and with-out image
and the Figure 2 shows the sample version for the media of ‘with-image’. The “withoutimage” version will be exactly same but without pictures. As Media-study’s main target is to
compare the system explanation effect, both the “with-image” and “without image” versions
were distributed randomly such that a respondent receives either with-image or without-image
version of questionnaire.
In this Media-study, the full-set SP technique (where respondents receive questions randomly)
was not adopted instead SP with same questions for all respondents were purposely used to
compare the pure effect of Media. A SP questionnaire was given with six scenarios and each
scenario was having four alternatives. Each alternative with four attributes and maximum
attribute levels were set to three. Selected attributes and its level values are as follows: travel
time (TT)={15, 20, 30}min, travel time variance (TTV)={0, 5, 10}min, fare (F)={10, 20,
30}Rs (100Rs=1US$), comfort={EBus, BRT}. Each respondent received 6 scenario x 4
alternative question sets and one sample scenario of the SP questionnaire is given below in
Figure 3. In order to eliminate intrusion of interviewer’s verbal demonstration (as it may
effect respondents’ preference), the drop-and-pick-up survey conduction method was used by
giving two weeks time for respondents to complete the questionnaire. Drop-and-pick-up was
-143-

conducted by: visiting household in-person; explained the purpose; if respondent accepted
explained filling method; dropping questionnaire; finally, collected back in-person.

4.2 Media-Study Output and Discussion
Overall return rate of 40.7% (285 handed over 116 collected) was observed. This less rate is
mainly due to conduction method of drop-and-pick-up method (purposely added to eliminate
interviewer interfere on BRT demonstration) and also because users were not so familiar with
this survey method. In general, interview method is the most common and a little familiar
method to collect data in developing countries.

The segmental variation has also been considered in the study. However, the conduction
method of drop-and-pick-up does not control the user-selection inside the household and
therefore respondents’ segment distribution was not spread well across the segments but got
concentrated. It has been observed that the income variable was poorly responded (as it exists

rate is another interesting output for further studies. By considering Figure 6 (right side) and
Figure 7, it could be concluded that for the same information but system explanation media
gives considerable influence on preference. Thus it is very important to consider every single
change in questionnaire design in the contest of developing countries.
5. Level of Complexity (LOC)-Study Survey
5.1 Questionnaire Design
This Level of Complexity study also conducted at the same area in which the media-study
was conducted. This also used BRT ‘type 1’ (from Table 3) as case system. Considering the
output of Media-study, this LOC-study was planned to be conducted using the selected media
of with-image for all respondents. Also, it was planned to adopt paper-based household
personal interview surveys rather than drop-and-pick-up conduction. Level of complexity of
the hypothetical questions has been planned to test by adopting two different levels of
complexity in terms of number of alternatives per choice set: simultaneous-set and sequentialpairs. In case of simultaneous-set, SP questionnaire was having four scenarios and each
scenario was having four alternatives. Each alternative was presented with three attributes and
at most three attribute levels. Selected attributes and their level values are as given in Table 5.

Each respondent received 4 scenario x 4 alternative question set for simultaneous-set. A
sample scenario from the simultaneous-set is given below in Figure 8. Unlike Media-study,
here the simultaneous-set were given randomly to eash respondents, as typical SP survey
conduction method. In oder to compare the effect of level of complexity, a scenario, given in
the simultaneous-set, was broken down into different pairs and rearranged to the form of
sequential-pair of hypothetical question sets, as menthioned above. By considering
respondent burden, in terms of questionnaire length, in this LOC-study, only a single scenario
has been selected from simultaneous-set and given in sequential-pair form. Therefore, one
particular respondent will receive four simultaneous-sets and one sequential-pair, which has
rearranged from one of the simultaneous-set scenario. For example, Figure 9 depicts the
corresponding sequential-pairs for the simultaneous-set sample given in Figure 8.
Figure 8 One sample scenario of “simultaneous-set” from LOC-study questionnaire

Proceedings of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, Vol.6, 2007
The LOC-study was conducted in September 2006 using paper-based household personal
interview survey. Interview was conducted by: visited household in-person; explained the
purpose; if respondent accepted explained filling method; and collected back in-person same
time by waiting.
Figure 9 One sample scenario of “Sequential-set” from LOC-study questionnaire
5.2 Level of Complexity (LOC)-Study output and discussion
From this household personal interview survey, 188 completed questionnaires were received.
Based on the collected sample, the analysis has been made in the following order. Some
variable and their values or dummy values used in the analysis in Table 6.

Socio-economic characteristics of the respondents were given in Figure 10. From 10(a), it can
be seen that male participation is double compare to female counterpart. It is due to the local
culture that generally female response only if man of the household is absent. The same
behavior can also seen in age groups. Therefore, reaching all segment groups is difficult in
developing countries. 31% of non-response for income field has been observed. As income is
minded as sensitive information, people generally use to be reluctant to declare their own
income. However, household income data is little better and it can be seen from part (d) of the
Figure 10. By observing the vehicle ownership (motor-bike also included) and car ownership
-147-
Proceedings of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, Vol.6, 2007
information, it can be said that most of the household does not own any vehicle and the
percentage of ownership may reduce further if motor-bike is excluded. Among car owned
household, most of them possess only one car and it may be used by more than one person.
This might be also the reason, beside the economic reason mentioned earlier, behind the fact
that car owned commuters also uses public buses.

The data has been analyzed using binomial logit model for deriving users’ utility functions
and therefore for finding significance of the selected attributes. The following utility function
was considered in this study and it is given in Equation (1).
U ( EBus) = a1(TT ) + a 2( F )
U ( BRT ) = a1(TT ) + a 2( F ) + C
(1)
Where ai = parameters of the relevant attributes ( i = 1 and 2)
C = mode specific constant
TT = Travel time (min)
F = Fare (SL Rs)
When adding additional attributes of socio economic items such as income, car ownership etc
then the above mentioned equation is slightly modified as given in Equation (2).
U ( EBus) = a1(T T ) + a 2( F )
U ( BRT) = a1(T T ) + a 2 ( F ) + ai (Vi ) + C
(2)
Where i = 3, 4, 5, ...
Vi = selected additional attributes
Using the formula given above, the binomial logit analysis has been carried out using GAUSS
software. The derived modal for the formation, shown in Equation (1), using basic attributes
alone, is given in Table 7. The additional cases were also prepared with different combination
of additional attributes of sex, age, income etc. using the formulation stated in Equation (2).
But, the attributes of personal information were observed as not much reliable in producing
-148-
Proceedings of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, Vol.6, 2007
meaning full model. Therefore few more cases have been made with cross checking attribute
like car ownership, household type etc. The car-ownership attribute has shown comparably a
good model and is given in Table 8.

In both models, the sign of the parameters of all attributes are obtained as expected. The
model accuracy measured by Rho-square values (maximum likelihood ratio) are also in the
accepted range (0.2 ~ 0.4). The values of “t-test” are also says that the parameters are
statistically significant. In order to compare model difference, statistically, BRT preferences
were calculated based on utility functions and derived models using actual values of attributes
given to each individual, and tabulated in Table 9. The “μ” values represents average BRT
preference ratio upon exiting bus.

This comparison clearly shows that the model from simultaneous-set and sequential-pair are
statistically differ for the case of general commuters and for non-car-owned commuters but
statistically indifference for car-owned commuters. Therefore, it can be said that car-owned
commuter’s choice were similar for both complexity (Sem and Seq). Thus, car ownership said
to be correlate with literacy in developing countries, and identified as important index. The
clear difference in BRT preference across different segments could be seen only from
sequential-pair (Seq). It dictates that sequential-pair might be easier in trade-off selection, as
it only deals with binary choice per selection though the questionnaire might be lengthy.
Overall, the observed preference is not same from these two levels of complexity even though
questions were conceptually same.
6. CONCLUSION
The segment variations of personal attributes are wider in developing countries and they are
essential in grasping total preference. Therefore, this study has designed a survey approach
using hypothetical question settings in contest of new transit system implementation in
developing countries. The study is mainly focusing on how the questionnaire design will
affect user’s preference and how the design could be modified to grasp more reliable data
from users. Physical design of questionnaire is considered under two different theme; system
explanation ways (Media) and level of question complexity (LOC). The study has observed
the basic problem in covering all segment groups into the survey. Due to concentrated
response on specific segments and very less response from other segments, introducing
segmental variations into the model becomes impossible.
Conduction of completely same questionnaire with new transit system explanation in two
different Medias of with-image and without-image under hypothetical question setting
(Media-Study) shows difference in respondents’ preference. It could be said that the
difference due from respondents’ literacy by either inexperience and/or lack of knowledge of
completely new transit system (BRT). Pictorial superiority in transferring the information is
found in the with-image case and with-image media has been concluded as a better media for
demonstrating the new system in questionnaire surveys.
Conduction of questionnaire survey to compare two different level of complexity (LOC) in
terms of number of alternatives per each choice set (simultaneous-set and sequential-pairs),
by giving same number of alternative in different structural form in hypothetical questions,
also shows difference in respondents’ preference. It could be said that the difference due to
respondents’ literacy by understanding in trade-off questions, where, in the case of
simultaneous-set, respondents need to choose from more alternatives (four) and more
attributes (three) at the same time. This study identified sequential-pair, where respondents
receive pairs of alternatives, can gives more reliable information and suitable for developing
countries. Car-ownership has been found as a good index of literacy.
Overall the study concludes that conceptually designed same questionnaire reflects
considerable difference in users’ response and this difference is not negligible when it comes
to the practical scale. Therefore questionnaire design needs more attentiveness on new transit

Abstract: This paper reports a pilot effort to disseminate the image of BRT to transport
planners in Bangkok and Colombo. The objective of the study is to examine the
efficiencies of three educational methods on increasing the understanding about BRT of
local transport officials as well as changing their attitudes toward implementation of
BRT in their cities. Specifically, the method of providing the results of the public’s
attitudes and perceptions on BRT and the behavioral plan method asking the transport
planners to detail their intention by specify possible BRT routes on the city’s map were
found to increase the planners’ intention to implement BRT. The method that provided
detailed information on using and operating practices of model BRT systems was found
to possibly increase the feeling of “obligation” of those planners to develop BRT system
for their own countries. The combination of these methods would be effective for
strategies to change transport planners’ attitude toward BRT.

1. Introduction
Rapid motorization in cities in developing countries has put a pressure on the limited
budget of many municipal governments in the provision of mobility for the community.
In developing countries, transport planners typically choose to work out the problem by
improving their bus system rather than railway system. It is because this is relatively
cheap way and also because bus is allegedly a “social accommodation” for the majority
of low income travelers. However, as the population reaches a certain level, bus services
could not serve the actual mobility need of the residents, and mass rapid transport is
clearly imperative for a sustainable economic growth.
When planning for mass transit systems, various respects need to be scrutinized
including building and operation cost, service capacity, efficiency etc. as well as impacts
on environment. And as a matter of course, the building of such a transport system
involves a lot of funds, therefore it requires not only the consensus of government
officials but more important the advocacy of the public as well. In view of that, a
bus-based mass transit system named Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is considered an option
appropriate with the local conditions of developing cities7,11. Initiated in Curitiba
(Brazil) in 1974, BRT has become popular in cities throughout the world12 due to
numerous strong points such as flexibility, cost-saving, and ability to build quickly14 as
comparing to rail which requires much more initial investment as well as time to
construct.
Although many successful implementations of BRT have been demonstrated
worldwide1, the application of BRT still meets certain obstructions14. Accordingly, one
of those barriers comes from government officials who may lack knowledge of options
like BRT or at a lesser degree, have low awareness about the benefit of BRT. In addition,
the public‘s acceptance to use for such a system is also a deep concern for those who are
planning BRT system. Wright14 further conceded that many developing cities still do not
have basic understanding about the potential of BRT. For that reason, as an initial step
raising the awareness of local planners about the need of such a system plays an
important role in development of BRT for any developing city.
This paper reports a pilot effort to disseminate the concept of BRT and its goodness in
transportation planning to transport professionals in the two developing cities of
Bangkok (Thailand) and Colombo (Sri Lanka) where BRT may have high possibility of
success if applicable. As a brief description, Bangkok is a mega-city having the
estimated population of 9.3mil while Colombo is much smaller with around 1.5mil
inhabitants in its urban area. However, the two cities share an inherent characteristic
with other developing cities, that is, frequent congestions have increasingly damaged on
economic and community life. Regarding public transport, in Colombo, trips by buses
make up around 85% of trips by transits modes13. The picture is not better in Bangkok
where road-based public transport account for 80% of transit trip9. Consequently, it is
known that the operation of traditional forms of public transit has shown many
- 156 -
deficiencies and unreliability8,10. To meet the demand, the system needs to be
ameliorated by implementing mass transit forms; and BRT is a feasible solution that
deems to be interested by the authority of these two cities.
On the above background, the main objective of this study is to examine the efficiencies
of different educational methods to increase the understanding as well as to change
attitude of local transport officials about the implementation of BRT system in their
cities. Specifically, the role of public attitudes toward BRT on affecting the perception
and attitude of transport planners and the effectiveness of providing information on
operating practices of BRT to enhance comprehension for transport professionals were
examined. Furthermore, the paper also demonstrates an example of increasing the
willingness to implement BRT through applying behavioral plan method2,4 on the basic
of psychological theories of implementation intention3,5. Accordingly, a method to ask
the subjects to concretize their thinking and intentions on paper was applied. This was to
furnish the subjects with implementation intentions6 and thus may help increase the
probability of putting their effort toward the expected behavior.
2. Method
In each target city, two subject groups, i.e., transport professionals and university
students representing as general public, participated in two experiments held as
workshops on BRT in September and November, 2006. In Bangkok, the participants
were 20 officials working in transport authorities and 24 randomly selected students in
King Mongkut's Institute of Technology University. In Colombo, however, participants
could attend either one of the two workshops. Thirty three and 46 students in University
of Moratuwa participated in the first and the second workshop while for the participants
as transport planners, the numbers are 50 and 25, respectively. Descriptive statistic of
these samples can be referred in Table 1. Additionally, some illustrations of the
graphical images used for the presentations and of the pictures describing the
implementation of the workshops can be seen in Appendix.

In the first experiment, two groups received a text explanation of the BRT concept, then
they were given a graphical presentation introducing about BRT system. After each of
these two steps, they answered a same questionnaire about BRT. The questions in this
questionnaire, for example, “Do you think that it is comfortable to use BRT?” was used
- 157 -
to obtain the participants’ perceptions on the use of BRT, or “Do you expect BRT can
actually be implemented in Bangkok/Colombo?” to know their expectation on the
building of BRT system, and “Will you make great efforts to implement BRT in
Bangkok/ Colombo?” to acquire transport professionals’ intentions to develop the
system. These beliefs were measured on five-point scales that ranged from 1 (not at all)
to 5 (yes strongly). The detail of the questions used in the questionnaires of all attempts,
i.e., in this experiment and in the second experiment, for each group can be referred in

At the beginning of the second experimental workshop, a graphical presentation same as
in the prior workshop was given to all participants to (re)elicit participants’ perceptions
on BRT. In the first phase of the second experimental workshop, via a presentation
transport professionals were showed the result of the student’s attitudes and perceptions
on BRT which was said to be obtained from the first workshop. As can be seen in
Figure 1 and Figure 2, what were showed to transport professionals in Bangkok and
Colombo represented the favor of the public toward BRT and their expectation to have
BRT implemented in the city due to the fact that almost the whole sample (strongly)
thought that “it is easy to use BRT”, “BRT is necessary”, “BRT should be
- 158 -
implemented” and (strongly) “wanted to use BRT daily”.

After the presentation, another questionnaire was distributed to the participants. This
questionnaire whose questions are described in Table 2 was similar to the one used in
the first experiment, except that an extra three questions was added to acquire in more
detail the possibility of transport planners to implement BRT.
Following the questionnaire survey, as the second phase of the second workshop all
participants listened to a presentation about using and operating practices of model BRT
- 159 -
systems in some cities. After that, they were requested to answer an exact duplicate of
the questionnaire in the previous step.
In the third phase of the second workshop, the transport professionals were asked to
deliberate where BRT route(s) should and could be actually introduced and to draw the
route(s) on the city’s map. This approach of asking to make an actual plan and to draw it
was called as “behavioral plan method”4 for attitude and behavior modification. It is
presumed that behavior plan method could help a formation of implementation intention,
which is the intention to implement a planned behavior. After they had drawn the
route(s) on the map, those professionals were asked to give their answers to a
questionnaire containing exactly same questioned beliefs with those in the second phase
(see Table 2).
3. Result
This paper focally studies the changes of the planner’s attitudes under different
experimental conditions, so only the results regarding transport planner are reported
hereafter. For each phase of the experiment, the mean scores of the beliefs of transport
professionals on BRT are shown in Table 3 and Table 4, noted that here the result of the
first experiment was of the survey implemented after the graphical presentation. With
almost all scores in the two samples much higher than the neutral level of 3, the result
indicates that the planners in Bangkok and Colombo have positive attitude toward use
of BRT as well as high perception on the implementation of BRT for their cities Note
that scores in Bangkok sample were found to be higher for nearly all beliefs after three
phases of the second experiment than in Colombo sample, and the transport planners in
Colombo seems to perceive that it was difficult to implement BRT, while those transport
professionals in Bangkok showed neutral attitude about this.
Following the study’s objectives stated before, the efficiency of three methods to change
transport professionals’ attitudes and perceptions on BRT, i.e., 1) providing the results
of the public’s attitudes and perceptions on BRT; 2) providing the detailed information
on using and operating practices of model BRT systems in other cities; and 3) having
the transport planners think and specify the routes on the city’s map, were to be
examined. Accordingly, paired-samples t-tests were performed across the first
experiment and three phases of the second experiment. For Colombo, the panel dataset
could not be obtained therefore only the means scores of three phases of the second
experiment were compared to test if there was any significant difference between phases
of the experiment. The results are shown in Table 3 for Bangkok and in Table 4 for
Colombo.
Effects of the provision of public attitudes and perceptions on BRT
With respect to the effect of the provision of the result how the public think about BRT,
a compare between the first experiment and phase 1 of the second experiment yielded
- 160 -
significant differences at .05 probability level in the scores of several beliefs. This result
indicates that this method to some extent had significant effects on changing the
planner’s perception. Particularly, the beliefs that “People will use BRT, if it is
implemented” and “Wish to implement BRT in the city” were clearly strengthened while
the feeling that “It is difficult to implement BRT in the city” significantly decreased after
the transport planners in Bangkok were let know that the public had good favor toward
BRT. These results also imply that transportation planners underestimated public
attitude toward BRT and merely provision of information about public attitudes could
therefore change transportation planners’ intention to implement plans for BRT system.

Effects of the provision of detailed information on using and operating practices of
model BRT systems
For the second method that provided information on using and operating practices of
model BRT systems, the effect on the transport professionals can be seen via comparing
phase 1 (before) and phase 2 (after listening to those information). Table 3 shows a
significant difference on the score of the belief: “Expect BRT can be implemented” in
Bangkok sample. Additionally, from t-values, the marginal significant differences (p
< .1) can be found in other two beliefs “BRT should be implemented in the city” for
Bangkok and “Devote work time to develop BRT” for Colombo. This can mean that the
gain of these scores was as a result of the method applied.

Effects of having the transport planners think and specify the routes on the city’s map
In the application of behavioral methods by asking transport planners to draw on the
city’s map the route(s) they thought need to implement BRT, Table 3 shows more
significant differences in belief’s scores between phase 2 and phase 3 of the second
experiment for planner group in Bangkok. Specifically, as can be seen from Table 3, the
strength of the beliefs regarding the BRT line(s) that each transport planner thought and
drew on city’s map, for example, “It is pleasant to use that BRT line(s)”, “Want to use
that BRT line(s) daily”, “People will use that BRT line(s) if it is implemented”, “That
BRT line(s) is necessary for the city”, “Wish to implement that BRT line(s)” and
“Devote work time to develop that BRT line(s)” were significantly increased and
fortified. Besides, from Table 3 it also shows that the feeling: “It is difficult to
implement that BRT line(s)” was significant decreased. This implies that the method
had significant effect on changing the attitudes of those transport planners in Bangkok.
For Colombo, Table 4 shows there was nearly no significant difference between the
scores before and after applying this method. Further, there was an unexpected finding
in Colombo when scores on the beliefs “It is pleasant to use the BRT line(s) you just
drew on the map” was reversely decreased. These results suggest that the method did
not show up effects on the target planners in Colombo.
Table 4 however indicates that the combination of providing the information on using
and operating practices of model BRT systems and asking the planners to specifically
plan the routes of BRT on the city’s map had significant effect on the transport
professionals in Colombo. The comparison between phase 1 and phase 3 of the second
experiment show that the strengths of three beliefs, namely “Easily imagine how to
implement that BRT line(s)”, “Expect that BRT line(s) can be implemented”, and
“Devote work time to develop that BRT line(s)” was significantly increased, given that
the planners were engaged in thinking and drawing possible BRT lines after listening to
detailed information on practical operation of BRT in other cities. This combined effect
can be seen more clearly in Bangkok sample in which most of the belief scores were
significant different between the two phases.
4. Discussion
The study examined the effect of three educational methods, i.e., providing the results of
the public’s attitudes and perceptions on environmental sustainable transportation
system, such as BRT; providing the information on using and operating practices of
model BRT systems in other cities; and asking the transport professionals to detail their
intention by specify possible BRT routes on the city’s map, in order to change the
attitudes and perception of transport professionals on BRT in Bangkok and Colombo.
T-tests comparing between phases of the experiments applying these methods were
implemented and the result showed different effects of each method on each country.
Firstly, for the method that provides for transport planners the result of attitude and
- 163 -
perceptions of the public in the previous survey, it was found that transport planners
could change their attitudes following the wish of the public. After listening and
comprehending the public’s attitudes which was favor toward BRT, transport planners
believed more in the public‘s acceptance to use BRT thus increased their intention to
implement a BRT system. It can be accredited the effectiveness of using the public’s
attitudes and perception in persuading transport professionals to engage in developing
BRT system, at least for the case of Bangkok as found in this study. This result implies
that transport professionals may usually underestimate public attitude toward a new
transport system such as BRT. However, at the same time it is worth mentioning that
with this stand-alone intervention there were still many beliefs having no significant
change.
Secondly, regarding the effect of providing transport professionals the information on
using and operating practices of model BRT systems in other cities, the study found that
practical information on BRT systems of other cities could trigger the feelings of
“responsibility” of transport planners in the role of planning transport system for their
city. The thinking that “BRT should be implemented in the city” as well as the
expectation that BRT can be implemented was seen increase in the surveyed planners in
Bangkok while in Colombo the subjected transport professionals as their own
responsibilities though that we will devote their future work time to develop BRT for
their city. Such perceptions may be formed while the transport planners compare their
city with the introduced cities that succeeded in implementing BRT. However, for this
method, it should be remarked that the increases were mostly marginally significant and
still limited in a few main beliefs.
Finally, having the transport planners detail their implementation intention on the map
had extreme effect on Bangkok’s transport planners. This method succeeded to increase
the implementation intention for the planners in Bangkok toward a possible BRT
scheme. Regarding implementation intention, it is conjectured that providing detailed
information on BRT as in the second phase may indirectly contribute to the formation of
implementation intention in the planners’ minds. However, from the result of the third
phase it can be concluded that asking them to concretize their comprehension and
intention on a paper is clearly a better tool to urge the subjects to form implementation
intentions. This experimental result therefore partially presents a practical support for
the behavioral plan method in changing perception as well as intensifying intention.
However, this method had shown no significant effect for the sample in Colombo. The
difference of the results between Bangkok and Colombo was not clear. It may be due to
the difference between attributes of the planners in two cities. The differences can be
deduced from the fact that transport officials in Bangkok may have much more
information about BRT than those counterparts in Colombo. This is because the ideas to
built BRT have been discussed since last two decades in Bangkok and so far many
reports and visual presentations have been done. Still, the author noticed that there was
one difference in the experimental condition between the two cities. We had enough
- 164 -
time for the second workshop in Bangkok, but for some reasons, less time was given to
the one in Colombo. Therefore, there was not enough time for making plans in the last
phase. This may be a reason of the difference between the results in Colombo and
Bangkok.
Still, even in Colombo, the combination of the method of providing detailed information
on BRT operation practices and the method of requesting for detailed plan in map was
found to be necessary to modify the attitude of planners in this city. The effectiveness of
the combination of these two educational methods was also found in Bangkok. These
results may also imply that enhancing both comprehension of practical information and
formation of implementation intention would be useful in persuading and raising the
awareness about the benefit of BRT for planners. Therefore, a package of several
educational methods would be more effective. Definitely, such a package would have
increasing effect in other developing countries where planners have higher capability of
comprehending practical information.
5. Conclusion and recommendation
Three educational methods have been found to have significant effects on changing
attitude toward BRT as well as enhancing perception on the implementation of BRT.
The efficiency of each method was also found to be dependent on the conditions of the
specific country. From the result of this study, in order to initiate a strategy to change
attitude and enhance the awareness about the benefit of BRT for transport policy makers
in developing cities, we recommend the sequential implementation of the following
approaches:
• Investigating the public’s attitudes and perceptions on BRT after disseminating the
image of BRT to the public, then providing the result of public’s attitude for
transport policy makers. By applying this method, the intention of transport policy
makers in implementing BRT would increase following the wish of the public.
• Presenting to transport policy makers the detailed information on implementing and
using practices of BRT in other succeeding cities. This method would increase the
feeling of “obligation” of those planners to develop a BRT system for their own
cities.
• Asking transport policy makers to engage in planning process of BRT system by
specifically thinking which route(s) is apt to build such a BRT line(s). This much
behavioral method would increase implementation intention toward implementing
BRT system.
And last but not least, the combination of three approaches, if permitted, would
intensify the intention to implement BRT system that will in turn increase the
opportunities to actualize BRT and to provide more “green” mobility to many people in
developing countries.

(8)パラトランジット運賃決定者(図 8)
・ ソンテウでは、80%の割合で政府が運賃を決定し、シーローレックでは、67%の割合
でリーダーが決定している。
・ 最も回答が多かったモーターサイクルタクシーでは、グループ内で相談して運賃を決
定するが 56%となった。この傾向は各パラトランジットのサービス方法と関係がある
と考えられる。
・ ソンテウは利用者にとって最も公共交通に近いサービスを提供しており、利用者の利
便性を確保する意味からも政府の関与が強いと考えられる。一方で、個人利用が多い、
いわばタクシーに近いサービスを行うシーローレックとバイクタクシーは運営者側の
影響が強いと考えられる。

4. パラトランジットの経営分析
パラトランジットの運営の実態を明らかにする上で、その経営状況は重要な指標の一つ
である。そこで、最も多くのデータを取得できたモーターサイクルタクシーサービスに着
目して、経営収支式を推定した。収支式は、田中1)がバス輸送のための経営収支の算定の
ために提案した式に着目した。バスの経営のために必要な項目を収入側と支出側に分類し、
経営上黒字経営となる状態を示した。そこで、同様にパラトランジットの経営に関係する
項目を収入と経費に分類し、経営収支式として推定を行った。なお、収支状態の検討は年
単位である。
ここで、新車を購入してサービスを開始する場合を考えると、経費として車両の原価償
却費を考慮すべきであるが、アンケートの結果では、多くのドライバーが既に車両費用の
支払いを済ませ、その使用年数も異なっていることから、今回は経費として含めていない。
総経費と総収入を表 2 に示す。

(1)モーターサイクルタクシーの経営収支状況
アンケート調査から得られた全ドライバーの値を式(1)に代入した結果、最大値 0.97、
最小値 0.58、平均値 0.85 となり、全てのドライバーが推定式の条件を満たす結果となった

様々である。
(2)モーターサイクルタクシーのサービス回数と平均運賃の関係
アンケート調査結果の中から特にモーターサイクルタクシーのサービス回数と平均運賃
の関係を図 11 に示す。これより、モーターサイクルタクシーが異なるサービス条件でサー

(3)サービスレベルの変化と経営状況
推定式を用いることで、運営状態が変化した場合の収支状況を指標として表すことが可
能である。そこで、年間のサービス日数、平均運賃及び1日のサービス回数が変動した場
合の収支状況の分析を行った。なお、分析には全ドライバーの平均値を用いた。
その結果、年間サービス日数が現在の 313 日から 247 日以下、平均運賃が 9 バーツから
8 バーツ以下、1日の平均サービス回数が 49 回から 45 回以下の状況になった場合、その
経営収支値は、1.0 以上となり、支出が収入を超える状態となった。それぞれの変動の中で
も、特に平均運賃が収支状態に与える影響が大きいと考えられる。
(4)モーターサイクルタクシーサービスの将来性
総経費の項目の中で、燃料費の占める割合は特に高く、ガソリン価格はモーターサイク
ルタクシーサービスの経営状況を決定する重要な要因である。近年その価格は右肩上がり
に上昇しており、サービスの将来性が危ぶまれる状況である。そこで、推定式を用いて、
ガソリン価格が変動した場合の平均運賃と経営状態に関する分析を行なった。その結果を
図 12、図 13 に示す。
図 12 の場合、現在のガソリン価格である 27 バーツには、7.6 バーツの運賃価格が該当す
る。これは、この価格以上でないと、経営収支値が 1.0 以下の状態を満たさないことを示
している。ガソリン価格に対する運賃の上昇は、およそ 10 バーツのガソリン価格上昇に対
して 1 バーツの運賃価格上昇に留まり、それほど大幅な運賃上昇をさせる必要はないとい
う結果となった。図 13 の場合、ガソリン価格が 43 バーツを超えた場合、経営収支値が 1.0
を超える結果となり、今後ガソリン価格が上昇しても、現在のサービスレベルのまま 43
バーツまでは支出が収入を超えない結果となった。

16. タイ・バンコクにおける BRT 導入評価の概要
タイ・バンコクにおける BRT 導入評価の概要
1. はじめに
アジアの国々では都市交通体系の整備は道路ネットワークに力が注がれ、軌道系交通機
関の整備は遅れてきた。そのため、自動車交通が増加し、都市域全域で深刻な交通渋滞が
発生している。これにより、アジアの国々において移動に主に使用されるバス交通の定時
性が確保できない等の交通サービスの低下が問題となっている。そこで、幹線輸送を担う
代替交通機関として軌道系交通機関や本研究で対象とするバスを用いた高度な運行を行な
う Bus Rapid Transit(以下、BRT)の導入が検討されている。
しかしながら、BRT の輸送能力は信号制御方式や料金収受の方法等の様々な運行に関わ
る政策の有無によって異なるので、その導入効果についてはそれらの政策の組み合わせを
ミクロな観点から評価する必要がある。そこで、BRT 導入が検討されているタイ・バンコ
クを事例として、ミクロ交通シミュレーションソフト Paramics を用いて、BRT 導入におけ
る複数の政策を実施した場合の効果や影響を推計し、総合的に評価を行なう。
2. 現地調査の概要
対象地域:バンコク中心部から北東に約 15km 離れた場所に位置する BTS、Mo chit 駅を起
点とする BRT North Line 計画路線(図 1)
実施機関:2006 年 8 月 28 日∼9 月 6 日

現地調査の方法ならびに得られたデータの使用方法は次に示す通りである。
1)シミュレーションモデル構築データ
(1)信号制御状況の把握
11 信号交差点において、それぞれ 10 サイクルの青現示時間とクリアランスタイムを測
定し、その平均値を用いてシミュレーション構築時の信号現示時間として設定する。
(2)交差点形状の把握
North Line 計画案では各交差点の従道路側の車線数、道路幅員、直進・右左折別の車線
の利用状況が不明であったため、全ての信号交差点において踏査により交差点形状の把握
を行ない、その結果をシミュレーションモデルのネットワーク構築時に適用する。
(3)可変車線の運用状況の把握
Phahon Yothin 通りは可変車線が導入されているが、その車線運用が不詳であったため、
朝ラッシュ時間帯、昼間帯、夕ラッシュ時間帯のそれぞれの時間帯の Phahon Yothin 通りの
可変車線の車線運用を把握し、可変車線の路上マーキングの確認を行なった。今回、再現
対象時間を 16:00∼18:00 としたため、夕ラッシュ時間帯での運用状態をシミュレーショ
ンモデルでは使用する。
(4)直進・右左折別車種別交差点交通量調査(図 3)
各信号交差点にビデオカメラを設置し、交差点の通過交通量を撮影した。撮影した画像
から直進・右左折別、小型車、大型車、路線バス、バイクの 4 車種別の交差点交通量を計
測した。この調査結果を元に各交差点の右左折率を算出した。

2)シミュレーションモデルの現況再現性の検証データ
(1)既存立体交差部交通量の把握(図 4)
立体交差 1 から 4 の既存の立体交差部の交通量の調査をビデオ撮影により行なった。撮
影した画像から立体交差側・側道側別、小型車、大型車、路線バス、バイクの 4 車種別の
交通量を計測した。このデータをもとに、計測交通量とシミュレーションから得られる交
通量の比較を行い、シミュレーションモデルの現況再現性の確認を行った。
(2)旅行時間
シミュレーションモデル構築後の現況再現性の確認を行なうため、本研究で対象とする
時間帯である夕方 16:00∼18:00 の旅行時間を調査した。調査方法は対象路線をタクシー
で走行し、その際に各交差点やランドマークとなる地点を通過した時刻の記録を行なう。
上下方向を同一時間帯に走行し、また同時にビデオ撮影により、混雑状況の把握を行なっ

(1)乗車前課金システムの概要
BRT の乗車前にバス停で運賃の精算を行うことで、乗降時間が短縮できる Off-board 方
- 189 -
式と、乗降時間は長くなるが設備費用が小さい On-board 方式の両者を政策として導入し
た。
(2)優先信号戦略の概要
優先信号戦略は、BRT が信号交差点を優先して走行できるように、赤信号は短縮、青信
号は延長するように設定を行なった。BRT 路線内で特に混雑が激しい 4 信号交差点で政策
を導入した(導入地点は、図 1 参照)。
4. シミュレーション結果
構築したシミュレーションモデルを用いて、分析を行なうにあたり、シミュレーション
モデルの現況再現性の検証を行なった。検証は対象路線全線の旅行時間の比較にて行なっ
た。その結果、現地調査で得られた旅行時間が 57 分 24 秒、シミュレーションモデルでの
旅行時間の推計値が 57 分 34 秒となった。このことから構築したシミュレーションモデル
は現況に近いものであると考えられる。
構築したシミュレーションモデルを用いて、BRT と一般車の上り、下り(都心方向が上
り)方向の旅行時間の推計を行なった。図 5、図 6 に推計結果を示す。その結果、乗車前
課金システムよりも優先信号戦略を導入したシナリオ 3 で BRT の旅行時間がより短縮され
る結果となった。さらに、2 つの政策を同時に行なうことで最も効果が表れ、一般車に与
える影響も抑えられることが示された。
上りに比べ、下りの旅行時間が短いという結果が得られた理由として、一部交差点にお
いて青現示待ち時間が異なること、Phahon Yothin 通りの可変車線が下り方向に対して優遇
