KEY SUMMARY
Overall satisfaction score on PT users has dropped as compared to2014, mainly due to the price hike in public transport, which wasannounced during the survey period.
Main reason for people to use public transport is because, they do nothave any private transport. However, those who own a privatetransport but continue to use public transport are due to the concernof traffic jam and limited parking space.
Likelihood to use public transport in future has dropped. Urban railand Taxi score has a huge dropped which contributed to the drop oflikelihood score.
Pricing is the main reason of satisfaction drop follow by publictransport being slow and not on time. Needs to look into bothattributes as it is the two main drivers.
