This case study reviews the special freight rates for the Banjarmasin – Amuntai route along 200 km. by land transportation. Where in this case, due to low tariffs, the tendency of owners of transportation services to increase the number of transport loads, one of the impacts on road network infrastructure is not achieving the planned age of the road construction.
