Willingness and Ability to Pay for a New Public Transport: a Case Study of Korat City, Thailand

Willingness to pay (WTP) and ability to pay (ATP) have been studied in several services to provide suggestion on service charge; for example, in water supply service, health care service, electric service, and education service. With regard to willingness to pay (WTP) and ability to pay (ATP) for using a new public transport can guide governments to justify suitable fare structure policy. This paper reports a study of WTP and ATP for a new public transport system in Korat city, Thailand, which could be a guideline for other small and medium size cities in developing countries.
