Intermediate Public Transport (IPT) is a sub-set of public transport, and deals with low technology vehicles thatoccupy less space and provide for short distance travel. They are a part of the transport system of most of the small townsand cities in India. In fact, the three-wheeler auto-rickshaw, one of the IPT modes, is extremely popular even inMetropolitan cities in India. They provide affordable travel to low-income groups. Since they are in inalienable part oftowns and cities in the less developed countries, an understanding of their potentialities and problems associated with themis necessary for a Traffic Engineer. Besides the conventional forms of public transport systems like buses and trains all thecities of any description in India have inherited the IPT forms of public transport namely auto- rickshaws, cycle- rickshawsand animal drawn vehicles called Tonga.
