Abstract

Various efforts have been made to overcome the problem of congestion in Palembang, one of them is to provide Light Rail Transit (LRT) which has been operating since July 2018. Analysis of the relationship between the needs of LRT, travel characteristics and characteristic of LRT operation is needed to evaluate the LRT level of service. Level of service of LRT can be assessed from route service, integration of LRT modes with other public transportation, travel time and cost of travel demand. Based on this, the research aims to model the need for LRT in Palembang City on the Transit Oriented Development (TOD. TOD is an area that has the potential to be developed into an integrated area between land use and transportation systems including LRT transportation mode in the area. Travel and mode choice characteristics data of respondents are collected on households in the TOD area. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) method is used to modelling the needs of LRT. The model can be used to determine the relationship between variables the need of LRT, travel behaviour characteristic and LRT operation characteristics. The result of the study shows that there is a positive and significant relationship between the variables on TOD area around LRT stations in Palembang.
