Summary: | People mobility between Madiun and Yogyakarta is increasing due to the
increasing of workers, social relations, education, trading activity between the two
cities and offcourse because of the tourism destination. Public transport between
major cities such as bus or train is necessary to make time and cost more efficient
and to support economic growth and people mobility. Nowadays public transport
such as buses is widely available, while for rail transport is still not.
This study was conducted to examine the characteristics and analyze the
possibility to increase the probability of selecting the railway mode by identifying
factors that influence the mode choice. Stated preference methods used to analize
the utility variance between air conditioned economic train and air conditioned
economic bus, so we know the mode models choice of both these modes. Modal
choice probability is measured by the binomial logit function.
The research results showed that the air conditioned economic train and air
conditioned economic bus has a different market share. By the time the difference
between the fares of air conditioned economic train and air conditioned economic
bus is IDR-11.300 bus passengers are started thinking to use air conditioned
economic train. And if it decrease again, while other attributes remain the same,
passengers who chose the air conditioned economic train will be greater than the
air conditioned economic bus. At the time of the travel time difference between
air conditioned economic train and air conditioned economic bus -170 minutes,
bus passengers are started thinking to use air conditioned economic train. The
waiting time and comfortable has no effect on modal choice between Yogyakarta
to Madiun air conditioned economic train and air conditioned economic bus.
