The Priority of the Road Network Development in Anticipating the Disparity of the Regional Development in Palopo City
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 4
Abstract
The regional development often causes a disparity phenomenon. This research aims to analyze the potential of production of natural resources in terms of regional disparity and the availability of road infrastructure network in supporting logistic transport to the potential of each region, and to prioritize development of road infrastructure network of production nodes as an effort to reduce regional development disparities. This research was conducted in 9 districts in Palopo City. Analysis used (1) Williamsons Index Analysis, (2) Entropy Index Analysis, (3) Regional Typology Analysis, (4) Scalogram Analysis, (5) Location Quotient Analysis, (6) Qualitative and Quantities Descriptive Analysis, and (7) Process Hierarchy Analysis. The results of the research determined 5 districts with disparities, although very potential from agriculture, plantation, forestry and fishery sectors. The transportation mobility aspect of logistics in 5 districts has not been well served because there is 49.63% of pebble/ground surface and damaged by 47.68%. The priority arrangement of road network development is directed to improve road structures, road network maintenance, and road farm development.
