However, we will need to examine further whether the places that they mention are not really in the current bus routes. The graph below shows us several things that the respondents thought might make them use public transportation more. Those are the top three things that the respondents mention to increase the use of public transportation. However, when we see the High School data and the Bartlett School data separately, we will see different preferences between high school respondents and Bartlett School respondents. The differences in the HS data and BS data come from different need between High School students and Bartlett School Students.
Older students seem to have more activities to do in the evening than younger students.
In order to increase the use of public transportation by youth, we will need to look at their needs. This may be because they need the bus to go back home from their after-school activities or from the movies or other kinds of activity. The findings that we have from the time and days the bus need to operate greatly support this finding. That means providing better access to transportation is also important for youth. This means that most of the respondents do not have to walk far to get to the bus stop and the city seems to have been successful in providing the bus stops that are near people s houses.
