People perceive feelings of safety and attractiveness to be different depending on the transport mode. People perceive private cars to be more attractive than public transport modes. The attractiveness might be affected by perceived risks and worry of being bothered, threatened and violated by fellow passengers while travelling. Individual differences might have an affect on perceived attractiveness, feelings of safety and perceptions of risks.

The report is part of the project Light Rail - Light Cost, part II
