Alternative funding sources for highway development and maintenance (Public Private Partnerships, Road Fund and Toll Roads) and ways to exploit these options by highway agencies was the area of my MSc dissertation.
The study area is Transport Policy and Travel Behavior, with a focus on ‘Changes in Travel Behavior in Response to Sustainable Transport Policies’ in the context of Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs). The research evaluated of soft attributes of public transport and their impact on public transport demand using discrete choice models to promote sustainable mode choice behavior. Existing evidence of valuation of soft attributes and their impact on public transport demand had been reviewed and focus groups have been conducted to finalize key attributes for valuation. Choice experiments were designed with these attributes with appropriate levels using SAS and Multinomial Logit (MNL) models and Mixed Logit (MXL) models were developed. Finally, the bus users' utility model for Dhaka City was developed using state of the art Discrete Choice Modelling (DCM) technique with Stated Preference (SP) dataset.
