Abstract

In the Philippines, most transportation studies focus on urban land transportation. Only few deal directly with water transportation. The Western Visayas Region is comprised of three main land masses separated by bodies of water. Recently, an ambitious inter-island bridge project for the region is proposed. The Panay-Guimaras-Negros Bridge (PGN) Project intends to connect the islands via bridges spanning approximately 23 km. In this study, survey questionnaires were administered in Dumangas, Muelle Loney, and San Lorenzo. Multinomial logit models using stated preference data were estimated to look into mode shifting behaviour of passengers to land based alternatives if inter-island bridges were built.
