In order to encourage more people to use public transportation, a better public transport system should be provided and improved from time to time. Numerous softwares have been developed to aid in the planning of transportation system. One of the software which is known as EMME/2 was used in this study. The EMME/2 was used to calculate the boarding volume of buses. Based on a case study, sensitivity analyses were conducted to determine the most influential parameters affecting the boarding volume. From the study, it was concluded that the most significant parameter for this case study is the wait-time weight, followed by the boarding-time weight while other parameters do not affect the boarding volume much.
