Analysing the willingness to pay for not transfer of public transport users

Abstract

The definition of public transport service should have to account the mobility necessity and try to adapt it to the transport demand. The transport supply cannot offer a direct service. In this work, we analysed the bus interchange from the users' subjective perceptions. For doing that, we designed a Stated Preference Experiment that present a choice between a current bus service and hypothetical direct bus service. The willingness to pay was obtained with the estimation results and the willingness to pay for not transfer defined by type of transfer, being lower the willingness to pay for not urban transfer.
