Malaysia is facing a challenge on how to improve factor public transport ridership along with the urbanization in the city. With the air pollution increment in urban areas along with the numbers of vehicles in the city, the public transport in the city areas need to improve. The research study, therefore, attempts to study the effectiveness of public transport ridership by investigating the factor of public transport ridership and improve the public transport ridership. The study has been conducted by using a triangulation method. The results showed that the elements of convenience, consistency/continuity, and comfortability are factors of the public transport feeder. Besides that, the factor of the attitude of the crew; the physical condition of public transport; environmental-friendly service; availability of seats, safety, and security; and punctuality of service, service frequency, and bus connections between bus stops recorded mean score at a high level under the limitation for public transport ridership. The implication of this study shows that the public transport operators and government must do some initiative to improve the public transport ridership.
