description | ABSTRAK
The growth of economy results in the growth of new business areas, which usually locate along streets with high traffic volume. However, these areas do not provide adequate parking facilities, so the visitors/customers often have to park their cars on trunk roads, which, in turn, reduces street effective width and leads to street capacity decrease. Public transport as the major transport service for middle to low class societies suffers from this situation in that buses have to share the lane with private cars which are growing bigger in number, resulting in lower public transport service quality. The application of bus lane is, therefore, expected to improve public transport service.
As a method for finding out the effect of bus lane application, the experiment compares the existing condition to the simulation of bus lane in which parking prohibition on trunk roads is included. The measurement covers street capacity, travel time, and speed.
The findings show that there is a flow increase of 4.73% from the condition before the application of bus lane. Bus travel time decreases as much as 6.69% while passenger car and motor bike travel time decreases 4.98% and 5.49% respectively. Bus speed increases 6.53%, but passenger cars and motor bikes speed decreases 4.59% and 5.49%.
