    Abstract :

    Delhi has been taken as study area to measure the performance analysis of the bus and multi-modal transit route. The main objective of this work is to measure the performance of direct route and multi-modal route in terms travel time, travel cost, transfer time, waiting time and line haul time. For this analysis, data was collected as commuter travel survey and traffic data. From the modal split models some performance measures were used to analyse the performance of bus and metro transit system. Such measures as Relative Travel Time (RTT), Relative Travel Cost (RTC), Relative Travel Service (RTS), Inter Connectivity Ratio, Passenger Waiting Index (PWI), and Running Index (RI).
