Abstract:
Insufficient multimodal transportation infrastructure in Indian cities increases travel time, waiting time, traffic congestion, traffic accidents, travel costs, fast-growing energy consumption, and walking distance. The multimodal transportation system's journey time performance must be analysed to tackle these transportation concerns. Thus, this research provides a fundamental method for assessing multimodal transportation system trip time performance. This study proposes three steps for assessing travel time performance: identifying factors, generating individual indices, and evaluating the Multimodal Transport System Travel-Time Performance Index. The travel-time performance index of Bhopal city was 0.79 after evaluating the results of the individual indices (Access 0.49, In-vehicle 0.39, and Egress 0.38). Consequently, this study will help identify areas for improvement in Bhopal's multimodal transportation system and provide insights for enhancing its efficiency and user satisfaction. The proposed methodology can be applied to other cities facing similar challenges, aiding in the development of more sustainable and user-friendly transportation systems.
