Message of theHon. Minister of Transportand Civil Aviation

National Transport Statistics 2016 | Volume VI

Construction and building of rail roads, highways and various types of road networks and operation of public and private transport systems on them became necessary, and turned to be the responsibility of governments.

National Transport Statistics 2016 | Volume VI XIII

In every country, along with its socio economic process, the social evolution and transformation of that country are changing. Impact of this change can be clearly seen in its passenger transport service, too, through the changes that have taken place in that sector.

Before the industrial renaissance, people used the modes such as palanquin, horse carriage, rickshaw, bullock cart etc. as their means of transport. With the entry into industrial age, in every country of the world, these modes have transformed into motor cycle, bus, train etc. Along with this transformation, construction and building of rail roads, highways and various types of road networks and operation of public and private transport systems on them became necessary, and turned to be the responsibility of governments. Every country needed a practical program to face the challange that cameup along with urbanization; a program to keep the working populace away from main cities. Due to this need, not only the road systems, but also the travel systems, too, occupied a prominnt place in the development process of countries, while becoming a role model of contributing a formidable share to the Gross National Production of a country.

In this context, transport has emerged as a formidable driving force in the global economy that help maintain all economic activities by becoming a facilitator of mobility to people who contribute physically as well as

mentally in agriicultural, industrial and service sectors; to reach their destinations.

“National Transport Statistics 2016”, compiled by the National Transport Commission which was established by Act No. 37 of 1991 as the main guiding establishment for the transport sector in Sri Lanka; can be seen as a task of fulfilling a timely need, in an era of gates of development are being opened in the country. “Transport Data” plays a pivotal role in directing the transport sector to keep pace with the rapidly expanding economic process.

The report provides a scientific basis for decision making on multi faceted economic policies by enabling efficient application of insufficient resources in the transport sector to achieve maximum results. Also, this publication is facilitating the researcher interested in researching on transport sector, to get his needs fulfilled efficiently, and on a low cost. National Transport Commission, by compilation of this report has shown its social responsibility in the journey towards establishing efficient, credible, safe and comfortable transport system.

I, therefore, take this opportunity to offer my heartiest thankfulness to all officers of the National Transport Commission for their dedication to this work.

The report has been compiled by the National Transport Commission, which is under the purview of our Ministry, and which plays the major role in providig data related to transport for the transport policy formulation of the Government. The report deserves the highest appreciation as it covers every data pertaining to the public transport sector in the country in a single summarised volume.

Under such circumstances, the contribution that comes from this report for innovative new approaches for the transport sector cannot be simply undermined. Also, appreciable is the role of the National Transport Commission for entering into this challanging task, having been mindful of its responsibility.

It is a well-known fact that, tasks of collecting secondary data for Transport Policy Formulation, Plans and Projects

preparation, etc., are very costly and very much time consuming. Within this context, I sincerely thank the National Transport Commission for taking the responsibility of collection and methodical record keeping of data from transport establishments such as Sri Lanka Transport Board, Provincial Transport Authorities, Sri Lanka Government Railways and Motor Traffic Commissioner’s Department and bringing up a report of this caliber.

As one of the main service sectors that exists in a country, the Transport System fulfills a very important role in its development process. It is not a secret that finding publications containing credible data on transport sector is extremely difficult even in an era such as this with dawning rays of development. At a time, when several important transport projects related to the development of Transport Sector are being implemented; compilation of “National Transport Statistics 2016” by the National Transport Commission can be regarded as a great achievement acquired by us. Our establishment is engaged in providing efficient transport facilitation for the people occupying with various economic, social and cultural areas and services as well as to everyone who are with transport needs in the country. We can only be satisfied by establishing a qualitative transport service for them. In order to obtain maximum labour contribution which is the main factor in the production process of the country, we have to reach towards a qualitative transport service. In this journey, it is essential to engage in ceaseless research and make right conclusions. This report fulfills that need to some extent at least.

However, it is pertinent to state here that this report should not be taken as a comprehensive analysis of its kind. But, I fervently hope that this will be very much useful to those who endeavor to engage in such analytical efforts in the future.

It gives me great pleasure to extend a message for the 6th edition of the National Transport Statistics issued for the year 2016. This report can be introduced as a mirror which reflects entire transport scenario of the island that connects transport data consolidated into one entity. This volume includes new data relevant to the field, with necessary modifications and changes compared to the previous issues. Hence National Transport Commission Statistics Report which was initiated in year 2011 which can be mentioned as a milestone in the history of Transport Sector in Sri Lanka. It has mainly focused on data in the fields of Private and Public Bus transportation and Rail transportation , which was absent since a long time until the first publication of the National Transport Statistics Report in the year 2011. This data reveals the prevailing situation and the way forward trend of the Transport Sector of the country which is one of essential factors that directly influences an economic development of the country.

I sincerely thank Hon. Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation, Board of Management and the staff of NTC for their utmost effort and voluntary dedication paid towards publication of this Journal. Moreover I wish

this publication to be modified further in future editions for the reference of the researchers, planners, investors, students and all stake holders engaged in this sector.

“National Transport Statistics 2016” is the current issue of a series that never fails to reach you every year. This regularly updated study report carries with it the important data on various establishments within the Sri Lankan Transport Sector. One can have a full view of the entire Sri Lankan Transport Sector through its pages. This can be compared to “shopping under one roof” as the common saying goes on.

As we have repeatedly mentioned in every issue, publication of the National Transport Statistics Report (NTSR) by the National Transport Commission (NTC) first came into being in 2011, fulfilling a long felt need that prevailed without the availability of data pertaining to transport in a properly kept system. We have successfully achieved our objective of compiling relevant statistics pertaining to different areas of the transport sector in the country into one single volume in its first issue itself. Without stopping at that, we extended our duty- bound exercise up to the year 2016 by updating it every year; accommodating every single development of the sector as well as the changes that have taken place within it.

In this issue too, we have carried with it the available data on every mode of transport in operation in our country today; the busses, trains, private vehicles and road networks, under road transport together with the data related to ports, civil aviation and road accidents, too. Illustrations with nearly two hundred of Tables and Diagrams, have been included in the report indicating the changes and new trends. Our aim has been to facilitate transport policy formulation and transport project planning by assisting the organizations and professionals dealing with transport matters; enabling them meaningful and correct decision making needed for the development of the transport sector as well as to serve on planning of overall development strategy of the country.

Among many who assisted us in this national endeavor, NTC acknowledges with thanks the valuable contributions of the coordinating officers; Mr. J.T.D. Jayasinghe, Development Planning Manager of the Sri Lanka Transport

Board; Mr. J.A.D.R. Pushpakumara, Director Planning; Mrs. Sudarshani Damayanthi, Planning Assistant of the Sri Lanka Railways; Mr. F. Theivafeelan, Statistical Officer of the Department of Motor Traffic; Mrs. H.H.R.K Herath, Administrative Officer of the National Transport Medical Institute; Mr. Dammika Mataraarachchi, Senior Programme Director of the Ministry of Highways; Mrs. D.N.

From the industrial revolution to the present globalization, transportation has been playing a vital role within the world as it is essential to move people, goods and resources to their respective destinations by connecting villages, cities, towns and countries.

In Sri Lanka, Transport sector is divided into two categories as freight transport and passenger transport. The services are provided through different means like road, rail, air and sea. Presently, transport sector requires a large investment in vehicles, right of ways, road way structures, terminals, administrative and communication plants and industrial supply infrastructure to provide qualitative service.

For this important sector of transport, it is essential to take strategic actions for related problems, need to develop capable approaches to measure performance and ensure the continue success of Transport Projects. Further as a developing country, Sri Lanka is essential to have decision making for future developments. To assist these functions, accurate data and information on transport sector is very essential factor and to make decisions in any sector it is heavily depend on the availability of Statistical Information. The National Transport Statistics Report is a remedy to assist in decision making as a responsible body for collection, storage and analysis have not been established in Sri Lanka.

National Transport Commission has been compiling the National Transport Statistics Report (NTSR) on annual basis from year 2011 up to the latest issue by collecting and tabulating all information and data relevant to transport, methodically.

Further, professionals, researchers, decision makers and students are the main groups who need different data and information on specific fields and the NTSR 2016 will be helpful to these categories that need data and statistics in the field of transportation in Sri Lanka.

The above Statistical information on Transport related activities, which can be called transport data, plays a vital role in transport related decision making for different types of present and future developments of the sector; and by publishing a series of transport data as a report, the National Transport Commission provides its contribution to a national endeavor.

National Transport Statistic report – 2016 is its 6th

consecutive issue carrying transport sector related statistics. It serves everyone who needs and looks for such type of data.

Private Bus Transportation Chapter 6

6.1 Bus Operation

National Transport Commission and Provincial Road Passenger Transport Authorities are the main regulators of private buses in Sri Lanka. All inter provincial private buses; nearly 3,118 buses are regulated by National Transport Commission while 16,283 intra provincial private buses within nearly 3,249 total bus routes are regulated by Provincial Road Passenger Transport Authorities. Of the total regulated bus fleet, nearly 3,106 inter provincial busses and 13,836 intra provincial busses operated in 2015.

Demand for Bus Transportation in the country accounts for 46.6 percent and from this 38.2 percent is for Private Bus Transportation while 8.4 percent of demand is for State Bus Transportation.

Although the government policy on bus operation is to operate 60 percent of the total scheduled trips by the private sector and 40 percent by the public sector, in 2015 private sector has more contribution for total scheduled trips.

Within inter provincial Private Bus Operation there are four types of bus services. They are known as Super Luxury, Luxury, Semi Luxury and Normal. Super Luxury Service has shown very higher improvement from 40 buses in 2014 to 89 buses in 2015 due to entering into expressway bus services.

Of the Provincial Road Passenger Transport Authorities, Western PRPTA regulated a fleet of 6019 busses on 456 bus routes and Central PRPTA regulated 2,113 buses on 540 bus routes.

The total number of buses owned by the Private Sector decreased by 5.0 percent, from 20,421 to 19,401 while operated average bus fleet also decreased from 18,534 to 16,942 at the end of 2015.

All inter provincial private buses; nearly 3,118 buses are regulated by National Transport Commission while 16,283 intra provincial private buses within nearly 3,249 total bus routes are regulated by Provincial Road Passenger Transport Authorities. Of the total regulated bus fleet, nearly 3,106 inter provincial busses and 13,836 intra provincial busses operated in 2015.

6.2 Bus Fares

The National Transport Commission (NTC) is entrusted to implement the National Fare Policy which was approved by the Cabinet in 2002. Accordingly, NTC is authorized to revise annual bus fares in relation to 12 components of operating cost index which is formulated in terms of National Bus Fare Policy. However, Annual Bus fare revision was not done in 2014 due to non change of fuel prices as at scheduled date for bus fare revisions. Anual bus fares were revised in Aug. 2016 by increasing 6% fare change.

There are four classes of bus fares as per the service standards. The fare of luxury buses is two times the normal bus fare and semi luxury buses are 1.5 times the normal bus fare. The super luxury fares are 3 times of the normal bus fares.

Gemi Seriya Gami Seriya rural bus service project was implemented in 2005 with a view to improve accessibility of people living in rural areas on their day today needs. This project provides reliable and economical passenger transport service to the public who are affected by lack of transport facilities.

This project identifies the actual uneconomical routes through a formal procedure, and disburses funds among the service providers of such routes who really provide socially necessary services during uneconomic times of the day, considering their actual operating losses on uneconomic routes. 21 Gami Seriya Bus Services are deployed in 2015.

7.2 Rail Passenger Transportation

Total passengers transported by rail transportation increased by 9 percent up to 141.16 million in 2015 from 129.5 million in 2014. The highest passenger movements of 61.4 million passengers recorded in Main Line while Coast Line recorded 43.6 million passenger movements. Total passenger kilometers in rail transportation increased by 8.2 percent to 7,407.39 million km in 2015 compared to 6,841.9 million km recorded in 2014. This increase occurred specially due to relatively low tariffs and the recommencement railway services on Northern Line,

introduced imported power sets for suburban & long distant train services.

Total revenue from rail passenger transportation continually increased during last decade due to increase in level of service. Accordingly, passenger revenue in rail transportation increased by 4.5 percent up to Rs 5,174.55 million from Rs.4,950.8 million in 2014.

No fare revision had been made in SLR in 2015 regarding passenger transportation.

Road Accidents Chapter 9

9.1 Road Accidents in Sri Lanka

After the end of civil war, road accidents have become the most severe problem in Sri Lanka. Younger generation, the age group 21 to 29 is the most affected party of fatalities in road accidents and this situation emphasizes the intensity of the problem.

Number of people died and injured in road accidents has increased significantly. Year 2015 has recorded fatal accidents increase by 15.04% and grievous injury by 15.77 % compared to the year 2014.

The total road accidents show a 5.95 percent increase in 2015 due to the increase of all accidents except damage only accidents in comparison with the previous years. The total fatal accidents records 2,600 in 2015 and this reflects 23.75 percent increase compared to the base year 2005. Of the total fatalities, 81.04 percent and 18.96 percent are males and females respectively.

Most of fatal accidents are caused by aggressive or negligent driving. The most vulnerable age group for fatal and grievous injuries of road accidents is 21- 25 years. Drivers and riders are the road user groups who are mostly endangered in road accidents compared to other road users.

According to the statistics provided by Police Headquarters, Colombo, it revealed that 1,301 drivers and riders have died by road accidents in 2015 and this is nearly 50 percent of the total fatalities.Maximum number of fatal crashes and grievous

injuries occurred during the months April to June in 2015 and the highest number of fatal accidents occurred during 19.00 to 20.00 hours of the day. The highest number of fatal accidents reported in Anuradhapura and Gampaha divisions respectively and it is 6.19 percent and 5.38 percent of total fatal accidents.

Further, the highest number of accidents occurred in Colombo and Nugegoda Police division and these reflects 12.26 percent and 9.79 percent respectively.

Number of road accidents caused by state buses (SLTB) shows 1,448 and this reflects an increase compared to the previous year. Number of fatal and other accidents caused by SLTB buses is less than the accidents caused by private buses in the year 2015. But fatal and grievous injuries in SLTB busses have significantly increased in 2015. However number of accidents caused by SLTB buses is greater than the accidents caused by private busses comparative to the number of operated buses in both sectors. 3,689 number of road accidents recorded by private busses in 2015 and this reflects 2.12 percent decline compared to 3,769 in previous year. However fatal accidents caused by private busses has increase from 240 to 267 in 2015.

As in previous years, the most responsible vehicle category for road accidents is the Motor Cycles and in 2015, 1,473 Motor Cycles and 858 Pedestrians are responsible for the fatal accidents while 501 Lorries too are responsible for the same category of accidents.

9.2 Global View of Traffic Death

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) there were 1.25 million road traffic deaths globally, with millions more sustaining serious injuries and living with long-term adverse health consequences. Globally, road traffic crashes are a leading cause of death among young people, and the main cause of death among those aged 15–29 years.

Road traffic injuries are currently estimated to be the ninth leading cause of death across all age groups

globally, and are predicted to become the seventh leading cause of death by 2030.

The low- and middle-income countries had higher road traffic fatality rates per 100, 000 population (24.1 and 18.4, respectively) compared to high-income countries (9.2). The African region had the highest road traffic fatality rate, at 26.6, while the European region had the lowest rate, at 9.3.

The civil aviation sector shows notable growth in terms of improving passenger and cargo handling in 2015. Total passenger movements in Bandaranayaka International Airport (BIA) recorded 8.5 million and this shows 9.7 percent growth in 2015 compared to 6.9 percent in 2014. This improvement is reflecting the increase in tourist arrivals during the year. Transit passenger also increased by 4.1 percent to 1.2 million in 2015. The highest number of passenger movements has recorded on month of August and December due to increase in tourist arrivals for the festival season.

SummaryAccording to the Central Bank Annual Report 2015, transportation of goods and passengers including ware housing activities grew by 5.5 present in 2015 compared to 3.6 percent growth in 2014.

Transport is an important aspect of the day to day life of the people and various transport modes are used and made available to full fill mobility requirement of the people.

international passenger airlines together with 3 cargo airlines, 8 domestic airlines were in operation.

Number of container ship arrivals and conventional cargo ship arrivals to the port of Colombo were increased in 2015. Further, number of handling container and Transshipment container handling also were improved within the year. Due to increase of imports of fertilizer, iron/steel at Colombo and Hambanthota ports the break bulk cargo handling increased.

Total cargo handling at ports of Colombo, Trincomalle, Galle and Hambanthota recorded a lower growth in comparison to growth rate of previous year.

The total vehicle handling at Hambanthota and Colombo Ports also increased during the year 2015.

Traffic congestion is the major problem specially in Colombo Metropolitan Area due to higher Economic and Commercial transection concentrated within

the area. Therefore this area have to be developed to cater the existing demand for transport facilities. The Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation has developed the Urban Transport Master Plan to mitigate these problems and issues by developing Colombo and suburbs as a Metropolitan Region with a Monorail System, Multimodal Transport Hub, Multimodal Center and Park & Ride System.

In public Transport Services overcrowding, lack of punctuality and comfort are the significant issues and therefore people tend to use private vehicles instead of using public transport modes. Due to these facts the number of utilizing personal vehicles such as Motor Cycles, Three-Wheelers and Cars have significant improvement in the year 2015.

Statistical information on transport related activities which can be called as transport data plays a vital role in transport related decision making for different types of present and future development of transport sector.
