Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to estimate the current passenger demand trends and passenger perception of Raml Tram usage. In order to undertake this task it was needed to conduct passenger count in addition to undertaking passenger survey along Raml Tram. The main conclusions of this research shows that the maximum number of passengers in summer is 373 compared to the corresponding value which is 420 passengers in school time for Bakous line. similarly, maximum number of passengers in summer is 279 compared to the corresponding value which is 347 passengers in school time for Bakous line. This indicates that in summer time there is a reduction in the demand on using the transit facility compared to school days. This is due to the fact that during the summer vacation there is less demand generally for using Raml Tram. In general, the passenger demand along Bakous line decreased by 11% while El Nasr line decreased by 19% during the summer
