Abstract
Evaluating travel time and cost burden for working in Jalalabad city is one of the key challenges for employees to use their modes of transportation for working place and as well as to examine the travel time difficulties encountered by those traveling to work in Jalalabad city. The everyday commute in urban areas has a substantial influence on the overall quality of life as a whole with longer travel times and congestion putting a strain on commuters’ fulfilment, efficiency, and happiness. Understanding and properly measuring these are critical for politicians and urban planners when developing successful transportation systems and policies. To meet the goals, multiple methods for estimating trip times were used, including survey-based techniques. To gather data on travel behaviors and trip times, declared preference questionnaires and indicated preference surveys were undertaken. The research investigated the average commute time and expense for several professional subjects and places, providing light on the differences in challenges faced by persons in various sectors. In addition, the overall average trip time and cost for various means of transportation were investigated to determine the effectiveness and affordability of every choice. The study’s findings add to the current research by focusing on Jalalabad city, Nangarhar and evaluating commute time burdens for work in the city. This small study wants to improve Jalalabad’s transit system and employees’ well-being by identifying suitable modes of transportation for commuters and important variables impacting these burdens and suggesting feasible solutions. The findings give useful insights for politicians and urban planners in developing specific programs to reduce commuter travel time barriers.
