Transit demand response to fuel pricing vs. supply disruption policies: Evidence from Peshawar's dual-fuel context

Key Points

• Transit demand decreases significantly in response to fuel pricing changes, influencing ridership patterns.
• An increase in fuel prices by 15% correlates with a 30% drop in transit usage over a three-month period.
• Analysis of transit data reveals the dual-fuel context shapes demand response strategies and adaptations.
• Findings highlight the need for effective transportation policies to manage demand under fluctuating fuel conditions.
