Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the key factors causing differences in efficiency between private and public bus operators, especially with regard to efficiency in service provision, wages, and costs. Econometric methods were used to estimate the cost function of bus services and the wage function. Analytical results suggest that the total operating cost of public bus operators is 20.2% higher than that of private bus operators, and that the wages of public bus operator employees are 14.5% higher than those of private bus operator employees.
