Abstract

AbstractIn the present study, we consider modelling the transportation and traffic problems in Batu City of East Java Province. Based on the accident data, the number of traffic accidents in Batu City is considered too high. Thus, the objective of this research is to develop a suitable model for motorcycle accidents around Batu City in East Java Province. Using some statistical analysis it is found that the best-fit motorcycle accident model is computed by : Acc = 7.019 × 10−6F1.702 exp (−0.2884SW + 0.091S) where : Acc = number of accident, F = Flow, pcu/h, SW = shoulder width, m, S = speed, km/h. This model shows that the affecting factors are flow, shoulder width and speed, therefore local government should improve some related factors (flow, shoulder width and speed) that can reduce the number of motorcycle accidents at crossing road in Batu City.

Highlights

  • In the present study, we consider modelling the transportation and traffic problems in Batu City of East Java Province

  • Test distribution Before we set up a model of a motorcycle accident on the town of Batu, we use the input data which is necessary to check the suitability of the distribution of each variable (Conover, 1999)

  • Observation data comparison Model A, good model, is expected to give a prediction or estimate the value of close observation data, for it is necessary to check the model of motorcycle accidents on these roads
