Engineering Development Of Passenger Transport Routes In Tarakan City

Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

The transportation problems of passenger transport (TAP) in Tarakan city are multidimensional, such as unstructured and uneven route, uncomfortable and less secure, overload of passengers during peak hours, condition of operator system, increased pollutions and noises and accident rates and traffic violations, and driver behavior. In brief the basic of the problem is the unity between Spatial Area Planning (RTRW) Tarakan City with TAP. The purpose of this study is to develop TAP trajectory in Tarakan City based on descriptive statistical method to: see demand of population movement; route performance, and the performance of transportation infrastructure, and the level of road service. The results found that the development of routes based on the existing performance of TAP in Tarakan City can be optimized for secondary road service level where the increasing of vehicle volume is significantly influenced by high population movement, land use, service level, transportation convenience, load factor, and road condition.
