Overview

Quantitative analysis demonstrates improved safety and accessibility for public transport users, indicating the need for smart stops.

Key Points

  • The proposed smart stops model enhances accessibility, safety, and comfort, promoting public transport use.
  • 68% of users reported low safety at current bus stops while 72% preferred real-time information systems.
  • Observation across 140 stops and 420 user surveys showed significant deficiencies in safety and access.
  • This intervention not only addresses infrastructure gaps but also aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 11.
