    Abstract :

    Delhi has been taken as study area to measure the performance analysis of the bus and multimodal transit route. The main objective of this work is to measure the performance of direct route and multimodal 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. In this study VISSIM (simulation modal) software were used simulate the bus and metro travel times, pedestrian transfer times and waiting times at varies transit stops for selected network, and analyse the travel times and delays at various segments in the network. From the commuter travel survey questionnaires and simulated travel time elements, some (OVTT, IVTT, cost, reliability, comfort age and gender) variables were used to define the utility of the two alternative route choices and construct the discrete choice (multinomial logit) model, and the choice probability of the alternative routes were analyzed for both equations.
