Mass Transit Route Network Planning in Makassar City

Abstract

Mass transit transportation in Makassar City has not been able to attract public interest in meeting their transportation needs. This is due to population growth, and the growth rate of mass transit is lower than the growth in private transportation in Makassar City. The objectives of this study are 1) Analyzing the location of nodes and potential demand for mass transit transportation services, 2) Analyzing the characteristics of mass transit modes and planning mass transit routes, and 3) Formulating indications of mass transit route network programs. Data sources come from data from previous research and related documents. They are using spatial analysis, population projections, projections of the Origin of Destination Matrix average method in 2040, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), Network Analysis, Buffering Analysis, and SWOT analysis. There are 43 nodes and 5 main transport route networks, and the mode used is Large Bus. The program indications are as follows: there is a difference in departure time between school and work, the operating time for 10 (ten) wheeled vehicles is 9.00 pm to 05.00 am, adequate road infrastructure for mass transit modes to pass, special lanes for mass transit, improvement of mass transit services (procurement of new modes/maintenance of old modes), application of the Complete Streets concept, application of the concept of Transit Oriented Development (TOD), Park and Ride, and Kiss and Ride.., routing to be integrated between modes, limiting the number of occupied vehicles (carpooling/3 in 1), implementing Road Pricing (Electronic Road Pricing/Area Licensing System), implementing transportation information systems such as the Teman Bus application.
