Deb, Kaushik ; Filippini, Massimo

In: Journal of transport economics and policy, 2013, vol. 47, no. 3, p. 419-436

A number of static and dynamic specifications of a log-linear demand function for public transport are estimated using aggregate panel data for twenty-two Indian states over the period 1990 to 2001. In all cases, transit demand is significant and inelastic with respect to the fare. Service quality, approximated by the density of the coverage of the transport service, seems to be an important...

Public bus transport demand elasticities in India

Demand has been defined as total passenger kilometers to capture actual market transactions, while the regressors include public transit fare, per capita income, service quality, and other demographic...
