Integration Of Mass Public Transport Fare In The Jakarta Area

Abstract

This study specifically discusses the concept of integrating mass public transport fares in Jakarta. Based on the identification of problems and also based on several studies of mass transportation in various cities in the world, the integration of fares can increase the number of mass public transportation ridership. This causes a change in the movement pattern of mass public transport users. An interim analysis has been carried out on a simple public transport network with the number of movements in the origin and destination matrix between stations/stops was 19,611 passengers/hour and variations in the amount of fare between IDR 2,500,-/passenger up to IDR 7,500,-/passenger (Existing average fare is IDR 4,188,-/passenger). In the optimization process, an existing operator’s revenue is an objective function. The optimization process for determining mass public transport fares is carried out recursively because it is influenced by changes in the integrated fare amount to the number of mass public transport users. The results of the optimization process show that the integrated fare of IDR 3,850/passenger (9% lowest than the average existing fare) that increasing public transport users by 3% compared to the number of passengers in the existing condition for 1 operating hour.
