Abstract

This paper on overcrowded buses is from the proceedings of 14th International Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment in the 21st Century, which was held in Malta in 2008. The author presents a case report of overcrowded buses and offers a possible solution using project management methodology. The first part of the paper presents the case report scenario of Braga, the third-largest city in Portugal and one that has experienced a 25% population growth in the past three decades. The author then describes how project management is often used in huge projects, with lots of interlocutors, high quality and environmental standards and higher budgets, but in smaller projects, may be considered a waste of resources. The author contends that, with adjustments, project management methodology could be useful in small projects. A task plan is used to organize the tasks of the small project, including working team dimensions, deadlines and budget.
