among all the reasons. The rating of lacking in promotion and not trustworthy are also low when compared with other reasons. Therefore, the results conclude that the proposition of people not traveling by West Rail is mainly because of the need for interchanging with other public transport to get to the destination is correct. Table 5.2.1 Reasons of bus passengers not choosing to travel on WR Mean reason of not choosing WR – too many times of interchanging with other transportation 5.86 reason of not choosing WR - stations are not convenient 5.73 reason of not choosing WR – expensive 5.48 reason of not choosing WR – slow 4.71 reason of not choosing WR - not enough feeder service 4.04 reason of not choosing WR - own preference 4.04 reason of not choosing WR – uncomfortable 3.62 reason of not choosing WR - not trustworthy 3.21 reason of not choosing WR - lack of promotion 3.01 reason of not choosing WR - not safe 2.78 Proposition 2: Except directly lowering the fare, improve its feeder service is the most effective way to attract bus passenger to go to urban areas to take West Rail Question 11 of the questionnaire listed 8 measures for respondents to choose the top 3 measure, but only 4 measures is being chosen by respondents to be the top measure. From Table 5.2.2, fare concession is the top measure that can attract 47
passengers. Over 50% of respondents (31 respondents) choose this measure as their first priority. There are 14 people (23.7%) choosing the increase of feeder service in West New Territories as their number 1 measure. Eight people (13.6%) indicate that enhancing feeder service in Kowloon is their number 2 measure. Even if we add up the percentage of the latest 2 measures above, it only have 37.3% people think that enhancing the feeder service is the number 1 measure. When compare with the top measures, the difference in the percentage is still quite large. It seems that the result does not justify with our hypothesis by just revealing the top measure. Table 5.2.2 No. 1 measure for attracting bus passenger to take WR Frequency Valid Percent increase fare concession 31 52.5 increase interchange concession 6 10.2 Enhance feeder service in West New Territories 14 23.7 Enhance feeder service in Kowloon 8 13.6 Total 59 100.0 For the number 2 measure, the situation is quite different as we can see in Table 5.2.3. The most frequently chosen measure by bus passengers to take West Rail is to increase interchange concession. Nineteen people (36.5%) chose this as the number 2 measure. Fifteen people chose the enhancement of feeder service in West New Territories as their number 2 measure. Ten people (19.2%) choose the 48
