Info

We separate the value of time of bus passenger into two groups. The value of time of bus passenger when the total journey time of WR is slower than bus is 0.6131. It means that if the journey of West Rail is slower than bus for 1 minute, the fare decrease for attracting bus passengers to travel by West Rail is $0.6131 per minute. The value of time of bus passenger when the total journey time of WR is slower than bus is 0.0846. It means that if the journey of West Rail is faster than bus for 1 minute, the willingness to pay is $0.0846 per minutes. When compare with residents in Ma On Shan whose average value of time is $0.16 per minute for a faster trip ( 成報 2004), the value of time for residents is quite low in West New Territories. Table 5.3.8 Value of time for bus passengers Minimum Maximum Mean Value of time of bus passenger when total journey time of WR is slower than bus .02 2.52 .6131 Value of time of bus passenger when total journey time of WR is faster than bus .01 .20 .0846 5.4 Analysis of Segmentation We will use the following method to segment the respondents 1. Home location (Distance from West Rail stations) 2. Home location (Districts of West New Territories) 3. Age 4. Trip purpose 59
1. Segment by home location (distance from West Rail stations) We segment those respondents into two groups according to the home location, that is live near to West Rail station and live far away from West Rail station. Places that near to the West Rail station include Tuen Mun Town centre, Siu Hong, Tin Shui Wai South and Long Ping. Other locations like Tuen Mun Ferry Pier and Yuen Long Town Centre are counted as far away from West Rail station. Table 5.4.1 shows the crosstabulation between household income and place of living. The household income of people who live near to West Rail stations is lower than people who live far away from West Rail stations. There are 31.4% of people who live near to West Rail stations are in low income group. On the other hand, there are only 18.6% of people who live far away from West Rail stations are in low income group. Although it is not significant, the result is still support for the difference in the income between two groups.
