| description |
This report provides: a high-level
understanding on women's travel patterns that builds
the foundation for understanding the ways in which they use
public transport and the degree to which this is met by the
public transport systems; and a first-cut view on
women's priorities in public transport and potential
ideas for addressing them. The purpose of this report is to
initiate a dialog on these questions and begin to develop a
picture of the role transport currently plays in
women's lives with an understanding of the further role
it can play, given women's specific needs. This study
was carried out in Mumbai. Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay,
is the capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra and is the
commercial and entertainment capital of India. Throughout
this report the authors has used the term 'women'
to refer to women and girls above the age of 16 as several
of our survey respondents are students between the ages of
17 and 21. However, there is a need for a deeper
understanding of the public transport needs of school-
children; many of them use public transport to go to better
schools that are father away from their homes. The study was
on public buses and trains, however, other modes of public
transport available in the city but not included in the
study are black and yellow metered taxis and auto- rickshaws. |
