Development of Sustainable Integrated Transit Area in Gorontalo Province, Indonesia

Abstract

Abstract Transportation integration is the integration of air, rail and land transportation modes with the aim of improving transportation performance more efficiently and effectively. The development of transit areas is important in order to realize a sustainable transportation system. Isimu Terminal in Gorontalo Province is a gateway to access to various modes of mass public transportation that serve inter and intra-provincial transportation. This research aims to evaluate the existing conditions of the Isimu terminal based on the evolution of the implementation of transit area development according to the categories: seamless mobility, sustainable neighborhood and optimum growth. This research is qualitative deductive. Primary data was obtained through in-depth interviews with station users and direct observation. Secondary data is obtained through institutional surveys to relevant parties. The result the integration of services between Djalaludin airport and Isimu terminal does not seem to be optimally connected and the loading and unloading of goods outside the terminal is visible. However, this area has the prospect of functioning as an intermodal connectivity node with the planned infrastructure development of the train station, Djalaludin airport, and Isimu terminal, and as further suggestions this area can be developed into an integrated transit area and transhipment node.
