Stated Preference Survey (SPS) for the Preliminary Study on Dhaka MRT Line 2 PPP Project (2021-2022) in Bangladesh

MSL conducted this survey to understand people’s stated preference (SP) for selecting a new transport mode under hypothetical conditions which cannot be predicted through analysis of the existing trip data, and to develop a mode choice model for travel demand forecast. In order to estimate future modal choice of MRT Line 2 the data collected from this SP survey was used. The survey was a combination of face-to-face online method (using tablet) and direct input by online method for the respondents who will wish to respond later. The Surveyors randomly selected sample interviewees to avoid sampling bias such as age, gender, income and their trip attribution.
