Kathmandu is Rapidly growing city where the Crisis due to centralization is foreseen in Transportation sector due to lack of proper Planning and Vision prior of establishing settlement. The Current status of Transportation system in Kathmandu is quite alarming in absence of well-organized Public Transportation system. The growth of Vehicles and simultaneously lack of improvements of existing facilities and traffic management have resulted in unorganized improvement of Traffic thereby increasing congestion, accidents and decrease in vehicle speed affecting road capacity. So using managed Scientific system to decrease jam causing parameters with most planned system and replacing the existing Systems by modern facilities, the problem can be reduced. Introduction of Bus rapid transit by gradual replacement of old transportation systems by providing a bus lane can be promising remedial measure to optimize public transportation system in Kathmandu valley

Operational Data

This paper assesses the operational data of a public transportation system, using the Bus Rapid Transit in Lagos State as a case study. Demographic data was collected through the administration of questionnaires to the commuters; this was carried out to observe variations in the population of the commuters from different perspectives. Some other categories of data were collected which include boarding and alighting, headway, arrival rate of commuters, waiting time of commuters and travel time data. These data were presented and analysed with MS Excel and Minitab statistical softwares. Results from the boarding and alighting data showed bus stops with high flux of commuters, these were at Ojota, Ketu, Mile 12, Costain, CMS and TBS. Probability distribution charts were prepared to analyze the remaining sets of data. This was carried out to study the distribution and consistency of the data. Coefficients of variation for the data were also estimated to study the variability of the data. From the study, the data followed normal distribution and they were consistent such that they can be used for further analysis of the system. It can be concluded that the distribution depicts the real situation at the study location. Thus, bus stops with high density of commuters should be provided with more buses so as to reduce the waiting time of commuters.

Public Transportation System

<p>TransJakarta was a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system in Jakarta. It was designed to provide Jakarta<br />citizens with a fast public transportation system to help reduce rush hour traffic. After operating more than<br />one decade, many suggestions and critics were given related to service quality. IPA and PGCV methods were<br />applied to determine which service attributes should be improved and their priorities. In this research, eight<br />service attributes were identified as critical attributes (on first quadrant of IPA diagram). The higher value of<br />PGCV index indicated the priority level of attributes. Based on its priority level, the order were 1) easiness<br />of giving suggestions, 2) ticket queue, 3) easiness of complaints, 4) the facilities for passengers with special<br />needs, 5) employees appearance, 6) transportation cost, 7) accessibility, and 8) the number of bus.</p>

On February 1, 2004, a 12.9-km (8-mi) bus rapid transit (BRT) line began revenue operation in Jakarta, Indonesia. The BRT line has incorporated most of the characteristics of BRT systems. The line was implemented in only 9 months at a cost of less than US$1 million/km ($1.6 million/mi). Two additional lines are scheduled to begin operation in 2005 and triple the size of the BRT. While design shortcomings for the road surface and terminals have impaired performance of the system, public reaction has been positive. Travel time over the whole corridor has been reduced by 59 min at peak hour. Average ridership is about 49,000/day at a flat fare of 30 cents. Furthermore, 20% of BRT riders have switched from private motorized modes, and private bus operators have been supportive of expanding Jakarta's BRT. Immediate improvements are needed in the areas of fiscal handling of revenues and reconfiguring of other bus routes. The TransJakarta BRT is reducing transport emissions for Jakarta and providing an alternative to congested streets. The BRT provides a tangible vision for an effective, viable, and sustainable public transportation system in Jakarta and elsewhere.

Transportation is often the bane of urban societies. Traffic gridlocks and inadequate availability of a comprehensive and affordable public transportation system further accentuate the problem. This chapter focuses on the Singapore experience with intelligent transportation solutions to alleviate a range of problems, thus contributing to its positioning as a smart city. We focus on seven issues: public transportation using modern mass rapid transit trains; congestion control using electronic road pricing; electronic monitoring advisory systems to guide road users on adverse conditions or incidents on roads; computerized traffic signaling systems to streamline the throughput of vehicles in roadways; intelligent dispatch of taxis, which helps to minimize idle cruising time; parking guidance systems to alert motorists of the nearest car park, in the process decreasing the level of floating traffic on roads; and integrated ticketing systems to promote inter-modal transfer. A unique funding mechanism that has led to the evolution of a modern and efficient public transportation system is also elaborated. Being a city state and a living laboratory of intelligent transportation systems that have attracted international attention, it is suggested that there are some lessons to be drawn from the Singapore experience in managing transportation problems in smart cities.

Accident Data

Among the various transportation systems, public transportation, especially Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), has a significant role in urban transport and has the mission of transfer of passengers and reducing travel time. In addition to these advantages, the weak and non-standard design and implementation of BRT lines result in an escalation of accidents and inefficiency. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the influential factors of the severity of BRT lines accidents before and after their construction. For this purpose, the accident data of Rasht BRT line 1 over the years of 2016 (before the construction of the BRT), 2017 and 2018 (after the construction of the BRT) have been analysed. The results showed that the construction of BRT has brought about 36 and 43 per cent reduction of accidents in 2017 and 2018, respectively, in comparison with 2016, and has given rise to the emergence of new accidents, such as collision with separator fence.

Abstrak Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis implementasi kebijakan pengembangan Angkutan Umum Massal berbasis Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) dalam mewujudkan sistem transportasi publik perkotaan yang berkeadilan dan Berkelanjutan di Provinsi DKI Jakarta. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa observasi, wawancara mendalam dan studi kepustakaan. Analisis data penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik triangulasi. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa implementasi kebijakan pengembangan angkutan massal berbasis BRT telah memberikan dampak positif berupa mengurangi kemacetan dan tertatanya sistem transportasi perkotaan. Namun harus implementasi kebijakan ini masih menyisahkan masalah. Implementasi kebijakan ini cenderung berorientasi predict and provide dalam kerangka mengatasi kemacetan dan kesemrawutan lalu lintas di perkotaan, dan cenderung mengabaikan rasa keadilan pengguna sarana transportasi dan stakeholder pembangunan lainnya yang ikut berkontribusi dalam kegiatan transportasi publik. Implementasi kebijakan ini belum berjalan optimal dan masih memiliki keterbatasan-keterbatasan, baik dari sisi perencanaan, penentuan tarif dan sistem pembayaran, operasional, dan pengawasan kebijakan. Kata kunci: implementasi kebijakan, angkutan umum massal, transportasi publik. Abstract The purpose of this study was to analyze the implementation of the policy of developing Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)-based mass public transportation in realizing a just and sustainable urban public transportation system in DKI Jakarta Province. This research uses qualitative methods with data collection techniques such as observation, in-depth interviews and literature study. Research data analysis was performed using triangulation techniques. The results of the study found that the implementation of the BRT-based mass transit development policy had a positive impact in the form of reducing congestion and the orderliness of the urban transportation system. However, the implementation of this policy must still be a problem. The implementation of this policy tends to be predictive and provide oriented in the framework of overcoming traffic congestion and traffic chaos in urban areas, and tends to ignore the sense of fairness of transportation facility users and other development stakeholders who contribute to public transportation activities. The implementation of this policy has not run optimally and still has limitations, both in terms of planning, determining rates and payment systems, operational, and policy supervision. Keywords: policy implementation, mass public transportation, public transportation.

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Trans Tangerang is a local public transportation system developed in the main corridor of the Tangerang City area as well as a feeder for Transjabodetabek and rail transport. BRT Trans Tangerang is one part of the Bus Rapid Transit program which is implemented and launched by Department of Transportation. The BRT Trans Tangerang system began operating at the beginning of December 2016. Some problems faced by Trans Tangerang Bus Rapid Transit such as the number of passengers that need to be increased to reduce congestion in the city of Tangerang and the placement of the right bus stops to attract passengers. Therefore, to overcome this problem, data and information about BRT Trans Tangerang are needed to find patterns of passenger distribution. The process of finding this information can be done by using data mining method. Within this method, there is a clustering technique which is useful to clustering all data in groups which have similar data. The algorithm used to classify the data is called simple k-means algorithm. In this study, all the data will be clustered into five cluster.  The clustering results have almost the same nature between the data in one cluster, namely the total number of passengers per month, so that by performing clustering characteristics, knowledge of the busy schedule of passengers in one day can help related parties to anticipate the density of passengers on certain days.
