Amongst built-environment features, the urban design and land-use diversity factors were positively related with the decision of mode choice selection. An attempt is made in the present study to identify the effect of various parameters of land use on a selection of public transit as travel mode and suggest a way to increase its ridership. From the study recommendation has been provided for policy measure at a new and existing route of public transit to increase its ridership.
