| Abstract | Increasing congestion on roads in metropolitan region and increasing usage of private vehicles are the serious issues that affected to the development of the transportation sector. Usage of public transport is less in this study area. In the usage of public transport one mode of transport is high and one mode of transport is less so in this research the public transportation is divided into two categories such as air conditioned and Non air conditioned.
