Abstract

Ride-hailing services (especially motorcycle-based ride-hailing services -MBRH) have seen a boom in Vietnamese cities because these services can serve as a more efficient alternative to urban mobility. However, relatively little is known about travel patterns of sub-population groups of ride-hailing services, including the spatiotemporal demand, origin, and destination patterns of ride-hailing users, and the effects of transit investment on the mode switching from current ride-hailing users. This information is particularly important for the implementation of traffic management measures focusing on public transport, in light of concerns about the reverse side of the ride-hailing services, such as aggravating the traffic conditions and causing losses in the public transport market.
