TEXT CLUSTERING APPROACH TOWARD COMMUNITY EXPECTATIONS TO THE BUS RAPID TRANSIT (BRT) TRANSJATENG PURWOKERTO-PURBALINGGA OPERATIONS

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is one of the alternative public transportations in urban areas, which has begun to be implemented in some cities of Indonesia. By finding out the effectiveness of BRT as a mass transportation system, it is necessary to study the expectations of users and non-users of the Trans Jateng Purwokerto-Purbalingga BRT regarding the perceived social, economic, and environmental impacts. This study uses the text Clustering method to group public opinion based on similarities so that it can be analyzed further for policymaking. As a result, the majority of the community gave positive expectations of BRT implementation’s perceived social, economic, and environmental benefits. On the other hand, public opinion on the presence of BRT is not always positive and has a significant impact. Improvements are needed in several aspects that are considered not to meet public expectations to maximize the function of BRT as a substitute for public transportation for private vehicles.

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.

The Government

Jakarta is one of the most congested cities in the world due to a plethora of motor vehicles used in the city. One of the government actions to address the issue is by implementing Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) as an alternative public transportation mode. However, according to the convenience walking distance standard, the BRT coverage the inhabitant to choose motor vehicle rather than walking. This paper purposes Bike-Sharing as the smart transportation mode to overcome such issue and predict the three potential places to establish sharing-bike stations according to the convenience walking distance standard. In this paper the walking distance is classified into 100 mater range (300 meter, 400 meter and 500 meter) projected using the euclidean distance principle. As the result for 300 meter standard, there are 809 potential bike-sharing stations consist of 164 main stations and 645 feeder stations, while the 400 meter standard needs 541 potential stations with 140 stations serve the BRT station directly and 401 stations as the feeder. Furthemore, with 500 meter standard, 359 stations consist of 131 main stations and 228 feeder stations is needed.

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.

Jambi Provincial Government tries to overcome congestion by providing public transportation, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, known as BRT Trans Siginjai Jambi. Public transportation Trans Siginjai Jambi has been operating for two years and has 11 BRT Stations. Placement of the transit node is one of the determinants of the role of bus stations in the surrounding area. The diversity of land-use and facilities close to the transit area can reduce travel time, so it is necessary to map the land-use that will determine the physical characteristics of the area around the BRT Station. This study discusses the characteristics of the area around the BRT Station using quantitative methods. Quantitative methods are used to determine the characteristics of BRT Station based on the variables of the proportion of land use in the area around the BRT Station. The land-use variable is obtained from the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) theory. The study produced three characteristics of BRT Station, namely City Station, Neighborhood Station, and Special Activity Station.

Recently, in Winnipeg, the implementation of new bus rapid transit (BRT) system in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic has raised many concerns, challenging the rationale behind the untimely release. However, the new BRT service can benefit low-income, socio-economically vulnerable, and transit captive passengers who must travel to essential services and work opportunities during the pandemic. This study evaluates whether the new BRT system has positive impacts on accessibility to such essential services during the pandemic. Isochrones with different time budgets as well as times of a day are generated based on high-resolution public transit network via the General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) data and used for evaluating accessibility benefits before and after the BRT construction. The new BRT service in Winnipeg demonstrates varying accessibility impacts across different parts of the BRT corridor. Areas near dedicated lane-section show a significant increase, whereas areas near non-dedicated lane sections show a decrease in accessibility. Nevertheless, across the whole BRT corridor, the new BRT service presents an overall increase in accessibility to essential services. This demonstrates the positive accessibility benefits of the new BRT service to residents seeking essential services during the COVID-19 pandemic. A decrease in accessibility along some parts suggests the necessity of using local transit improvement strategies (e.g., dedicated lanes) to improve service speed when planning BRT services within urban areas.

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