This chapter interrogates some empirical data to examine some of the contributory causes of EBS in South Africa, and uses the City of Johannesburg as a case study. The daily travel patterns of car users are analysed within the context of how bus services are provided in Johannesburg. The findings are particularly important for authorities planning and public transport systems and operators who wish to make their services more financially sustainable.
