Qatar kickstarts plans on improving public transport system, with public surveys now underway

In an effort to improve upon public transportation in Qatar, the Ministry of Transport has kicked off the development of the Qatar Public Transport Master Plan (QPTMP). This should effectively aid in Qatar’s initiative to commit to sustainability, as well as focus on urban growth via competitive public transit.

This naturally includes accessibility for the public as well, along with service reliability while incorporating the most advanced mobility tech. Ideally, the system should improve upon issues on congestion, and allow citizens to reduce their dependency on their vehicles. This goes hand-in-hand with reducing public transport’s environmental impact, along with carbon emissions and climate quality.

With these sustainability initiatives, the plan would be in line with the Qatar National Vision 2030 and the National Development Strategy. Following this, an improved public transportation system should also improve the public’s economic vitality, supporting healthier lifestyles for everyone.

To accomplish this, the ministry will be commencing public surveys to gauge the public’s needs and collect relevant data for the public’s preferences. This will run from April to August, with public surveys being conducted in public markets, bus stations, shopping malls, tram stations, and the metro.

Rest assured that the data gathered will be kept with full confidentiality and will only be used for the purposes of developing the transport plan.
