The Bus Occupancy Survey is designed to collect data on the number of passengers on buses at key locations. Surveyors are responsible for counting the number of passengers boarding and alighting at each stop, as well as those already on the bus when it arrives. It is important to clearly identify the bus route and ensure accuracy in counting the passengers. The survey should be conducted at the designated stops and times provided in your schedule.
For each bus that stops, record the number of passengers getting on, those getting off, and the total number of passengers on board as the bus departs. Make sure to capture any changes in bus capacity throughout its journey. Real-time data entry using the provided forms or electronic devices is crucial for ensuring accuracy. Double-check your entries before submitting the data.
