As a metropolitan city with large population, Jakarta requires adequate public transportation system for its alternative solution to support the activities of people. Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) is a public transportation system that goes in high mobility rate to transfer or carry passengers in large number without entry barriers This paper study about prospective passengers of Jakarta’s MRT, their interest to shift in commuting choices into MRT, willingness to shift (WTS), and willingness to pay (WTP). The research used stated preference with direct surveyes to customer. The analysis of modal shift (WTS and WTP) was conducted by parameters of urban transport: affordability, availability, accessibility, and acceptability. The result is most of respondents are willing to shift to MRT because of its faster, more comfortable, no traffic jam, more safe, cheaper, and other, and they even willing to pay additional fare from their current mode. And people who unwilling to shift to MRT due to the distance of the nearest stations is too far.
Ensuring environmental sustainability is one the Africa's 2063 Goals. Kenya, being a signatory to the Africa's 2063 Goals by Africa Union (AU), has an obligation to incorporate and integrate the Africa's 2063 Goals by AU into its programs and policies. One of the key things that is lacking in today's environmental planning is African Union cooperation. The environment must be studied, understood and tamed or controlled. Beyond this, man must learn to define his relationship with the nature in more sustainable and friendly terms. This study looked at the Environmental Sustainability and Housing Projects: case of housing projects In Nairobi County. This study was a descriptive research as it investigated factors influencing environmental sustainability of housing projects. This study targeted all gated communities in Nairobi County that were constructed from 2007 to 2019. Regarding sampling techniques, this study applied both probability and non-probability sampling techniques to ensure a good representation in all categories. A simple random sampling technique was adopted for the gated communities. A minimum sample size of 220 respondents was taken. A total of 220 questionnaires were administered to tenants and out of this, a total of 180 questionnaires were returned. This accounted for 82% of all questionnaires distributed. Descriptive statistics showed that Environmental Planning had a mean of 3.45 and a standard deviation of 1.72.Environmental Awareness had a mean of 3.77 and a standard deviation and a standard deviation of 1.01. Environmental Sustainability of housing Projects on the other hand had a mean of 3.12 and a standard deviation of 1.15. Based on the above conclusions, study recommended that another study be done with an ai7m to investigate Factors influencing the adoption of modern technologies that influence environmental sustainability of residential estates, the role of ICT in promoting environmental awareness and adoption of modern technologies that enhance environmental sustainability of residential estates.
