“…Even though conducting these studies is essential, there are few studies of tour-based mode choice in developing countries. Most of the studies that have been undertaken focus on mode choice [18][19][20][21], travel behaviour [22][23][24], and activity-travel patterns [25,26]. While their results are useful to inform policy, they tend to ignore the influence of tour type on mode choice or focus on time of use more than travel behavior.…”

With the advent of activity-based modelling, transport planners’ focus has shifted from isolated trips to tours. Tours are series of interconnected trips that start and finish at home. There are different types of tours; we focus on two: hwh (start at home; go to work; and then go back home) and hw+wh (where + represents a non-work activity). Tour types introduce a new dimension to the traditional problem of travel mode choice, as the mode choice might be influenced by the type of tour. This study attempts to measure and compare the relationship between tour type and mode choice using three different modelling approaches: Multinomial Logit (MNL); Nested Logit (NL) and Cross-Nested Logit (CNL). We compare each approach using secondary data from a larger survey: 24-h daily activity patterns of 420 commuters between Bekasi and Jakarta; one of the busiest commuting routes in Indonesia. Among other results, we found that gender and income significantly influence commuter’s choice of mode and that reducing travel time and cost can increase the ridership of public transport. Furthermore, the NL and CNL models showed significant improvement over the simpler MNL when grouping the alternatives based on tour types. This points to a significant influence of the tour type on the mode choice. Policy recommendations to increase traveler’s wellbeing are also formulated.

“…Therefore studies regarding motorcyclists' travel behaviour become very important. For example, Irawan and Sumi [7] in 2012 found that in Yogyakarta, instead of asking their teenage children to school using public transport, the parents tend to escort them to school by motorcycle. As a consequence, these children arrived at school at a very early time in the morning.…”

“…As in [7], children need to arrive very early in the morning to negotiate with their parent's schedule to work, we might propose child-care service in the school vincinity that also open very early in the morning with additional service: healthy breakfast. The children will be more responsible and their health will be guaranteed.…”

“…Primary, junior and high school students are commonly driven to and picked up from school by their family members using private vehicles. Meanwhile, most senior high school students choose to ride motorcycles on their commute to school [7]. A survey of bus use frequency shows that nearly 63% of students aged 13-15 years old in Yogyakarta never use public transport.…”

This study aims to investigate students’ difficulties in using the bus to get to school based on Rasch analysis and examines students’ innate abilities in handling the barriers. A total of 536 high school students in Yogyakarta were randomly surveyed. This study considers forty barriers of bus use grouped into eight aspects: safety, bus stop reliability, accessibility, mobility, payment system, bus reliability, transfer efficiency, and information and communication technology. The results show that the students experienced 18 main barriers in using the bus. The limited time of travel, circuitous routes, and distance to the bus stops were the three most significant barriers for students in using the bus during the morning commute. Conversely, students reported no difficulty using the bus regarding safety and payment system aspects. This result additionally shows that gender, age, allowance, and drivers’ licenses also influence the extent of the barrier experienced by the students. Finally, some strategies to increase the students’ ability to overcome barriers in utilizing the bus are proposed to create a sustainable public transport system in Yogyakarta.
