Abstract

Traffic congestion is a problem that not only of a particular country but also of the whole world, it is happening extremely complicated and dangerous. It causes bad consequences for the economy as well as the people. The objective of this paper is to measure which factors impact on traffic congestion through empirical case of thirty-one city-provinces in Vietnam by using methodology Cronbach’s Alpha, Pearson Correlation and Multinomial logistics regression. The main results are Population of Ben Tre province is likely to slightly impact on traffic congestion that for every unit increase on Population of Ben Tre province, the probability of Population of Ben Tre province slightly impacts on traffic congestion is changed by a factor of 935.946 increasingly. Urban residents of Quang Nam province are likely to heavily impact on traffic congestion which for every unit increase on Urban residents of Quang Nam province, the probability of Urban residents of Quang Nam province heavily impacts on traffic congestion is changed by a factor of 15.796 increasingly. Yen Bai province is likely to slightly impact on traffic congestion which for every unit increase on Urban residents of Yen Bai province, the probability of Urban residents of Yen Bai province slightly impact on traffic congestion is changed by a factor of 165568.300 increasingly.
