J Civil Engg ID 2(2):7-17. Received Date: February 14, 2020; Accepted Date: February 24, 2020; Published Date: April 08, 2021 Abstract GIS can be widely used in transportation policy and planning agencies, especially among urban transportation organizations. GIS offer transportation planners/decision makers a medium for storing, displaying, analysing, modelling, and simulating various spatial/ effectively, and economically than existing methods. attribute data on population, land uses, and travel behaviour. In fact, GIS address potential transportation issues more efficiently, The present research seeks to investigate spatial accessibility of a multimodal transport system in an urbanised area with respect to the proposed or planned metro railway project in the city of Mumbai, India. From literature and current practices various factors transport system, private transport systems, pedestrian walking and more. The research aims to identify key factors in these available influencing multimodality in transport are interpreted such as bus rapid transport system, mass transit system, integrated public transport systems which may affect the efficiency or effective use of the proposed metro project such as population, location, trend disasters like terrorist attacks.
