It is well known among the academicians and urban transport studies have repeatedly reiterated that transport transit-oriented development (TOD) can and is increasing the propensity to use transit. TOD essentially brings housing, jobs, entertainment options, restaurants, groceries closer to the transit stop.But the success of a TOD area is only possible when people are living in TOD areas and more often than not, also their workplaces are in TOD areas. In that case both workplaces and residence are close to transit stops, thereby making transit a dominant mode choice. But what happens when only side of a work-based trip is well connected will people still use transit for work? Does living closer to transit stop (access time), still play a key role in influencing people to use transit even if workplace is further away from transit stop? This study tries to answer this ambiguity by considering multiple combinations of access and egress walking time. By doing so this study aims to specify the importance of access and egress time, both individually and the combined effect on the propensity to use transit.
