Abstract

Banyuasin Regency is a buffer zone of Palembang. Many of Banyuasin residents work in Palembang, and vice versa, causing a lot of travel between these two regions. The objective of this research was to study the characteristics of the transport, trip generation and attraction, as well as the traveling route in these two areas. Origin and destination interview surveys as well as the calculation of the traffic volume were conducted in this study, followed by the calculation of interaction and connectivity. These studies suggest that the purpose of travel is predominantly for work (30.1%) with a distance of more than 20 km. Generated trips consist of 178 private vehicles, public transport of 270 people, and 99 goods transport vehicles. While the attracted trips consist of 156 private vehicles, public transport of 298, and 116 goods transport vehicles. Only 12 districts have overland routes to Palembang while 7 others do not have a land route to Palembang.
