| Summary: | The high population growth rate in the Bandung Basin Metropolitan Area (BBMA)
has implications for the annual increase in traffic volume. Along with the lack of
adequate public transportation alternatives to meet the mobility demands,
congestion has become a complex issue in the area. In BBMA, paratransit services
commonly known as "angkot" (public minivans) are the most widely used public
transportation by the community. Unfortunately, the low quality of angkot services
has shifted passenger preferences towards using private vehicles. To improve public
transportation performance, the Directorate General of Land Transportation of the
Ministry of Transportation of the Republic of Indonesia has developed Trans Metro
Pasundan (TMP), covering services around BBMA. However, there has been
resistance to the operation of TMP, particularly on the Leuwipanjang–Soreang
route, which is one of the factors causing a decline in angkot passengers.
Addressing these issues, this study focuses on formulating an intervention to
restructure angkot as feeders for TMP to achieve public transportation integration.
Referring to the availability of existing routes and the results of the origindestination matrix calculations depicting potential movement demand around the
planned routes, six feeder service routes were formulated to serve key activity
centers. Additionally, a business model for operating feeder services was developed,
including operational performance standards expected to guide the optimization of
service quality and fare calculations based on willingness to pay, ability to pay, and
vehicle operational costs (BOK). Implementing a feeder fare equal to the shortdistance angkot fare, which is Rp3,000.00, is expected to make the feeder services
attractive to passengers. |
