Sustainable transportation is a transportation system that minimizes the impact on economic, social and environmental aspects. One of the land transportation used in Makassar is Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Trans Mamminasata is a public transportation service that can be used by the people of Makassar in middle and lower level. In public transport services is often found the uncertainty waiting time of bus arrival and departure at each stop. This research applies repetitive scheduling method in solving the scheduling problem to know the departure and arrival schedule of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) at every stop. This research proposes the arrival and departure schedule of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) based on each route at each stop. The result of the repetitive scheduling method is the duration of time and the number of units of the bus according to the condition intensity.

Sustainable transportation interventions affect public health in three ways: through ( a) reduced pollution emissions, ( b) increased physical activity, and ( c) reduced road accidents. The public health benefits that can be achieved through investment in sustainable transport thus are substantial. This study sought to estimate benefits from sustainable transport intervention in the city of Indore in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh through the construction of a bus rapid transit (BRT) system along a main traffic corridor. The benefits were estimated with a health impact assessment methodology developed on the basis of modal shift and vehicle kilometers traveled. With the introduction of a BRT system, the study found that about 14 lives could be saved per year as a result of an increase in walking or cycling, a decrease in private vehicle use, and a reduction in air pollution exposure. Also, more than 96 deaths could be prevented from 2013 to 2017 along the BRT corridor when compared with current trends in motorization with no BRT system investment. The reduction in emissions between a business-as-usual scenario and post-BRT scenario was 11%. The mortality risk from exposure to particulate matter of up to 2.5 mm in size could be reduced by 1.1%. Even given the limitations with respect to the data and the assumptions made in the study, the results were significant enough to recommend that public health aspects be considered in the formulation of transport policy and in the maximization of benefits.

Queue Theory

One of the queue systems that is often found  in daily life is the transportation service system, for example a queue system at the shelters departure of corridor V Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Trans Semarang. Corridor V has three departure shelters, they are Shelter Victoria Residence, Shelter Marina, and Shelter Bandara Ahmad Yani. Corridor V was choosen, because of its high load factor on January to June 2019. Based on the observation, the service time at the departure shelter is usually longer than the normal shelter. This causes the rise of queue at the departure shelters. The queue at the departure shelters can hamper the arrival of BRT at the other shelters, so the application of the queue theory is needed to find out the extent of operational effectiveness at the departure shelters. The resulting queue model is the Non-Poisson queue model, the queue model for Victoria Residence Shelter: (DAGUM/GEV/1):(GD/∞/∞), Marina Shelter: (DAGUM/G/1):(GD/∞/∞), and Bandara Ahmad Yani Shelter: (GEV/GEV/1):(GD/∞/∞). Based on the value from measurement of the queue system performance, it can be conclude that the three departure shelters of corridor V BRT Trans Semarang have some optimal condition. Keywords: Shelter Departure of Corridor V, Non-Poisson Queueing Model, Dagum, Generalized Extreme Value, System Perfomance Measure

The increasing need for transportation has prompted the government to provide public transportation to increase mobility and reduce the number of private vehicles. The Department of Transportation of Central Java Province has developed the Trans Jateng BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) mass transportation in the Barlingmascakeb area through activities to improve the Trans Jateng agglomeration transportation service. The BRT that has been operated in the Banyumas area is Corridor 1 on the Purwokerto-Purbalingga route. This study aimed to analyze the characteristics of travel behavior and passengers' willingness to walk. The sampling of the research was random sampling using a questionnaire as the main data collection tool. The results of the discussion of travel behavior in terms of the purpose of the trip were dominated by recreation/shopping and education. The majority of BRT users used public transportation as the mode used before switching to BRT, the connecting mode from home to shelter is dominated by feeders, while from destination to shelter is dominated by walking. The connection distance from the house and from the destination to the shelter is >400 meters. Thus, the majority of respondents came from a buffer range of 0-400 meters. Based on willingness to walk, some respondents walk up to a radius of >400 meters. It is necessary to add more shelter points if the distance between stopping points does not meet the standards and provide better shelter access, especially by walking or using other integrated public transportation.

One of the global challenges facing the humanity in the 21st century is to improve the sustainable socio-economic development of countries. Thus, significant results have been achieved in Azerbaijan's socio-economic development over the past decade. The main reason for this is the implementation of large economic projects to ensure continued development in Azerbaijan. Innovative development of the economy is associated with the solution of the problem of promotion of innovation, the formation and development of innovative entrepreneurship, fundamental tax reforms and elimination of staff shortages in this area. The most important thing here is that the future state of the Republic of Azerbaijan will find the key government program "Strategic roadmap for key sectors of the national economy". The socio-economic successes of Azerbaijan in recent years have also been reflected in the reports of reputable international rating agencies. Azerbaijan has been included in the top 20 reformist countries in the World Bank's Doing Business rating. In total, it ranks 34th out of 190 countries. The country is ranked ninth according to the Business Establishment Index. In this report, Azerbaijan entered the top five in the world in terms of starting a business by simplifying business registration and was ranked as one of the best practice countries.[17] President Ilham Aliyev said at a conference on the results of the first year of implementation of the “State Program on socio-economic development of the regions of the Republic of Azerbaijan for 2019-2023”. to raise the level of competitive states. Therefore, given the challenges of the modern world, rapid development in the region will continue.

The two largest cities in Ecuador each implemented three bus rapid transit (BRT) corridors from 1995 to 2013. The projects present similar characteristics, and thus a unique opportunity to analyze factors that influenced their performance. This paper identifies the level of private participation and the extent to which it influenced the outcomes of the projects. Two approaches were identified: 1) including incumbent operators by delegating vehicle acquisitions and operations; and 2) replacing them with a public company. The financial strength and interest of the incumbent operators in continuing to function along parallel routes were major issues. Quito was successful in the implementation of the first corridor through public delivery but failed in its attempts with private participation. Guayaquil surmounted the barriers for effective private participation through a special purpose vehicle (SPV) that managed the risk created by the inherent nature of the consortiums. It is expected that a deeper understanding of these processes will contribute to more efficient and sustainable transportation investments in Ecuador.

The City

As the city growing bigger in line with population, urban economics will be alongside daily transportation. The high number of daily transportation need to be accommodated with urban public transport services. In 2011, Bandar Lampung City Government provide Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) as a mass public transportation service in Bandar Lampung City. But, after about 9 (nine) years, the number of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) route services is drop. The sustainability is questioned due to the number of passengers and operating routes continuously down, starting from 7 (seven), to 3 (three) then today is only 1 (one) left. But the city without public transportation service certainly become a bad precedent. Rajabasa Route-Panjang is the only Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) service exist. The vehicle operating costs calculation shows about IDR 648,101,870 / year, IDR 1,874,252 / day, IDR 312,375 / trip, IDR 8,255 / km, IDR 156,188 / hour and IDR 3, IDR 124 / seat needs to be provided by the regulator/government to ensure the service.

Important Indicator

Bus rapid transit (BRT) is characterized by higher speed, higher comfort level, and larger capacity than conventional bus service. Although many cities worldwide have adopted BRT in recent years, there is an absence of scientific and quantitative approach for BRT network planning. The problem of BRT planning in an existing transportation network is very complex with constraints of road geometrics, regulations, right of way, travel demand, vehicle operations, and so on. This paper focuses on developing an optimization model for BRT network planning, where an integer programing model is established to identify station locations and route layout with the objective of maximizing the number of trips served by the network, subjected to constraints including distance between stations, cost of construction, road geometrics, etc. The detour factor of the BRT route, which is an important indicator but widely ignored in previous studies, is also taken as a constraint. A heuristic method is applied to generate optimal solutions to the integer programming model, followed by a case study using the transportation network and travel demand data in Luoyang, China. The numerical results show that the method is valid and can therefore be applied to improve BRT network planning and the sustainable transportation system development.
