In Ulaanbaatar where nearly 50 percent of the country’s population resides, travel demand has been increasing due to rapid urbanization. Poor public transport services and vulnerability to natural hazards such as flooding are affecting residents’ livelihoods and disproportionately hurting vulnerable and low-income populations.
The KGGTF grant supported development of the Pre-Feasibility Study for On-Demand Transit Service (ODTS), which provides analysis of options for a potential ODTS in Ulaanbaatar, and includes references to international practice, recommendations for a pilot study area, analysis of stakeholders, financial viability, business models, and options on integration within the existing institutional structures.
