Intensifying numbers of travel demand draws problem to sustainable transport system because of poor facilities, services, frequency and punctuality due to lack of decent planning and design. Increasing numbers of the vehicle ownership has developed the road networks insufficient that leads to congestions. The issues of travel characteristics chosen by the people to their employment area that will show the travel pattern is the core point in this research. The research methodology consist of the interview sessions to the authorise personals and from the distribution of questionnaire survey forms to the resident of low-cost housing areas in Melaka Tengah District in Malaysia. Then data collected were processed using Social Package Statistical Software (SPSS) to show analytical result. This process will displayed the respondent’s travel characteristics and determine their preference in transportation mode to the employment area. Analytical result showed that the impacts from more than half of the respondents choose to travel by car as transportation mode to working area will come to consequences of traffic condition which lead to congested road. These findings will further help bringing in improvement to existing routes and public transportation systems so it will be optimally utilised for a better daily commute. © 2012 Penerbit UTM Press.
