Thus, this study suggested that public transport facilities must be upgraded with better roads and better bus stops. Payment methods and tickets’ price is merely not a big issue for National Park. For promoting a sustainability issue, the National Park required more enhancements, not just the bus, the roads around also must be facilitated with more eco-friendly infrastructures to promote walking and cycling.Keywords— Supply Chain Strategy, Sustainable Transport, National Park, Touris
