Abstract

The transport sector occupies an important place in a tourism system and is one of the most critical components of the tourism infrastructure. Of late, public transportation has increased significantly in the parlance of tourism. In a destination, public transport services are developed to provide access and accessibility to and within destinations and can be used by tourists and locals alike. A quality public transport system is inevitable in modern societies, and the need for efficient public transportation is increasing day by day.
