Abstract:
Accessibility is the main parameter which contributes to the effective transport system. An effective transport system and associated urban forms will improve the economic and social opportunities. The objective of the paper is to know about the different levels of accessibility to the public transport system. The public transport accessibility level (PTAL) is identified for the selected study area with the help of an indexing system. Accessibility maps create a common language between urban planners and traffic planners, often leading to interesting insights and mutual understanding. The result of the paper would be the base for recommendations to improve the existing public transport system service.
