The government of Bangladesh is planning to develop and implement bus rapid transit (BRT) in Dhaka City. This paper presents a stated choice survey conducted to understand workers’ attitudes toward BRT in Dhaka. Survey data were analyzed with a multinomial logit model to scrutinize the effect of social and economic factors on participants’ mode choices. Analysis results revealed that males, older workers, workers with higher education qualifications, and workers with higher incomes have a greater tendency toward choosing BRT.
