In general, public transport organisations are being forced to move from a traditionally operations-driven orientation to a more market-driven orientation, which means that they need to improve their service quality. In light of the aforementioned, this paper explores the theory of service quality with special emphasis on the dimensions of transport service quality, namely, reliability, assurance, tangibles, empathy, and responsiveness.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Social Sciences (COES&RJ-JSS)}, author={Govinder, Krishna K.}, year={2014}, month={Apr.}, pages={301–316} }
