| Summary: | South Sulawesi, as a region with high mobility in Indonesia, requires adequate transportation
infrastructure to support sustainable economic and urban growth. In line with the government's
commitment to developing the railway network on Sulawesi Island, a railway track from
Makassar City to Pare-Pare City has been built. Previously, people only had the option of
buses as public transportation for intercity travel. However, with the presence of trains as a
new alternative, people's choice of transportation modes is increasing. This research aims to
determine travellers' mode preferences between buses and trains (Makassar-Parepare) by
considering the factors that influence travellers' choice of mode of transportation based on
socio-economic characteristics and travel characteristics based on revealed preferences as
well as travel time and travel cost attributes for stated preference. Where, the results of the
research show that the characteristics of travelers based on socio-economic and travel
characteristics tend to prefer the train mode. Furthermore, from the results of interventions
that have been carried out on travel time and travel cost attributes, it was found that travelers
will choose public transportation modes with shorter travel times and more affordable costs. |
