How is Reliability Measured?
1. Actual bus journey time duration will differ from scheduled bus
journey time duration.
Slope of people
paying by cash
is much steeper
ANOVA Test by card
Y=14.579+6.367X1+3.157X2+!.
Summary of results for one-sample t-tests: for every bus not running
to the scheduled headway (i.e. Actual Headway ≠ Scheduled
headway), the bus will depart on time (i.e. punctuality = 0)
Bus Punctuality Null Alternative Sample

Hypothesis Test 4 - People will perceive buses to be less reliable than
they actually are.
