This study aims to identify the significant attributes that influence the utilization of the park-and-ride scheme in three fringe areas of the Kuala Lumpur conurbation namely Shah Alam, Rawang and Seremban. In understanding the characteristics of the park-and-ride users, three main areas of concern are the socioeconomic, trip and the parking-related characteristics of the users at the stations. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) is applied in order to delineate the catchment area and calculate the access distance of the respective stations. Information was retrieved by means of personally-administered questionnaire at the park-andride site via random sampling and car park utilization survey to determine the hours of parking. By applying standard multiple linear regression, the attributes that were found to significantly influence the duration of the utilization of the facility are total travel time by rail (via the park-and-ride), income, trip purpose, egress mode and types of rail ticket used.
