Abstract

This paper is part of a long-term research project on Advanced Public Transportation System (APTS), taking place in Macau, a city ranked 8 in the list of the world’s most overcrowded cities as at September 2016 [1]. At this stage, a study of Macau’s bus passenger profile is presented, based on their mobility method and pattern, their view of bus services and bus drivers’ driving behavior and their own driving profile. Data was collected using a comprehensive online questionnaire survey with close-ended questions. The goal of this survey is to characterize the profile of the bus passengers in Macau, in particular their risk perception towards driving behavior. Statistical clustering analysis has demonstrated that risk perception is dependent on age, driving experience and other social factors.
