This research examines the interaction between self-organization and planning interventions in the context of the North Coast Java megaregion, with a particular focus on the phenomenon of circular migration. The North Coast Java megaregion is an urban area connected by infrastructure networks such as the Pantura and the Trans-Java toll road, spanning from Merak to Banyuwangi. The study aims to understand how desirable and undesirable self-organization patterns emerge in the circular migration transportation system and how multilevel planning interventions can influence these dynamics. The study finds that the megaregion needs to be viewed as a complex and dynamic system requiring adaptive and multi-level planning approaches. Traditional approaches that consider urban areas as closed and static systems are found to be inadequate in addressing the hyper-complex socio-spatial challenges of megaregions. Through the analysis, this research identifies the desirable and undesirable patterns in the performance of circular migration transportation. Furthermore, the interaction between self-organization and planning interventions is explored to understand how planning approaches can respond to the dynamic changes occurring. This dynamic is exacerbated by the often poorly coordinated multilevel government structure, resulting in challenges in transportation management. These findings underscore the importance of cross-sector and multi-level government collaboration to manage complex urban dynamics.
