Statement of Problem:

How efficient is the transport system for students of Edward P Yorke

who commute from Ladyville Village.

Reason for research:

Public transport is transport of passengers by group travel systems
available for use by the general public, typically managed on a
schedule, operated on established routes, and that charge a posted fee
for each trip. For many students this is the main way of travelling to and
from school. This investigation project is designed to help identify the
faults in the system and recommend adjustments.

Method of investigation:
A questionnaire sheet will be given to some students that commute
from Ladyville and the data collected will be recorded.

Reason:

 It is quick and easy to collect results

 It allows information to be gathered by a large audience
 It conceals personal identity and encourages them to answer
truthfully.
