Determination of toll gate optimal number: A case study of Kertosono – Kediri toll road in Indonesia

Abstract

The Kertosono-Kediri toll gate is currently under construction and operated in 2021. This toll gate is the entrance of vehicles that move from the industrial area of Mojokerto, Kertosono. For exit access this toll gate serves vehicles through the Maron Kediri toll gate, and the Sonoagung Pambon toll gate. If the toll booths operated are not in accordance with the amount of vehicle flow, it can cause poor vehicle traffic performance. The purpose of this study was to the optimal number of the gate in serving toll user transactions. The method in this study uses the number of optimal gate rules carried out by organizing data based on variable values and parameters traffic intensity per lane in the toll-gate section. These variables include the average number of vehicles received per hour and the average number of vehicles received per hour. Based on the analysis shows the number of toll booths for the Maron Kediri toll gate with 95 units/hour as many as 4 gates, 189 units/hour requires 8 gates, and 284 units/hour requires 10 gates. The Sonoagung Prambon toll gate with 118 units/hour as many as 4 gates, 236 units/hour requires 8 gates, and 353 units/hour requires 10 gates.
