摘要:Public bas is one of the pioneers’ public transportations of the country besides train and taxi. However, the quality service of public bus is declining and caused lower anticipation of the riders. The complaints and poor anticipation of bus riders have led to service back out by the bus providers. The current pandemic situation has also made them give up on the continuing the service of public bus. Therefore, the study aimed to review the quality of service of public bus in Northern Peninsular Malaysia. The areas that covered the Northern Peninsular Malaysia are Perlis, Kedah, Penang, and Perak. The attributes on the quality of service for bus focused are on-time performance, passenger load factor, and service frequency. Those attributes are reviewed and compared with past studies. The result of the study found that the all the attributes are influential in maintaining the quality of service of the bus at Northern Peninsular Malaysia. Authorities and bus providers at Northern Peninsular Malaysia need to put a high attention on giving the best quality of service prior to the attributes for the bus riders to enjoy the public bus transportation.
