Resumo
Este artigo aborda os sistemas de transporte público, os serviços por eles ofertados e o padrão de deslocamen-
to das pessoas na Província de Siquijor, uma ilha das Filipinas. Para o desenvolvimento desta pesquisa foram

utilizados formulário de pesquisa domiciliar, entrevistas com passageiros dos diversos meios de transporte
público e uma minuciosa observação participativa. Ônibus, jeepney, easyride, triciclo e habalhabal são os sis-
temas de transporte público disponíveis na ilha. Contudo, estes serviços não proporcionam o tempo de viagem
e espera, disponibilidade ou frequência, conforto e segurança demandados pelos passageiros. A maior parte
das pessoas opta por se utilizar do easyride em função do conforto e do menor tempo de espera, ao passo que
optam pelo ônibus em virtude do conforto oferecido. Considerando o padrão de viagens, situação socioeconô-
mica e condições topográ icas locais, este trabalho buscou identi icar qual o sistema de transporte público mais
apropriado para a ilha. Observou-se que o ônibus é o meio mais adequado para trajetos longos, enquanto o
easyride se destaca nas viagens intermunicipais e o habalhabal nos trajetos em áreas montanhosas.

Palavras-chave: Barangay. Easyride. Habalhabal. Jeepney. Triciclo.
