HARLOW BUS STUDY. FINAL REPORT VOLUME 1: MAIN REPORT

This report deals with a preliminary feasibility study of bus services in Harlow, intended to ascertain the problems existing in the use of public transport, and on the basis of the findings, to develop a job specification for more detailed studies. Existing data was largely used as a basis for the study, new field work being confined to meetings with interested parties, observations of bus operation, and a small scale household attitude survey. This volume contains 5 chapters dealing with: 1, background to the Study; 2, analysis of bus operation in Harlow; 3, public attitudes and demands; 4, evaluation of problem areas - perception and reality; and 5, suggested program of action. /TRRL/
