| 摘要： | With the rapid growth of the city especially in Delhi, there has been an extensive capacity to upgrade the public transportation system. To support the rapid engagement in building these facilities, the feeder connectivity for first and the last stop need to be identified. The aspect of providing economical and convenient feeder connectivity, that is, from the trip ends to the point of accessing a public transport system, is an area of much neglect in Indian cities, including Delhi. A conducive plan of integrated system can be then identified with the reduction of the problem of 'ingress' and 'egress' transport to and from a public transport stop to final destination, which may increase the attractiveness of using public transport system. Feeder services do exist, their services are limited to a few and selective stations. The rest of the demand is principally met through intermediate public transport (IPT) such as autorickshaws or through cycle-rickshaws, which are again restricted to certain areas. There remains a lack of conscientious efforts towards integrating these IPTs with rapid transit systems and optimising their potential as a feeder option. The lack of adequate walkable and cyclable environment in the city further accentuates the problem of public transport users. This paper presents findings of a study based on a sample survey in the context of Delhi Metro. The effort has been made to assess the comfort, time, space, cost, incurred in the feeder system; users' preferences and alternatives available for feeder system; and in the end, whether lack, of efficient feeder options is a decisive element in the commuters' choice of modes and how it involves the overall efficiency of a public transit organisation. |
