Abstract
Tangerang City is the largest city in Banten Province and the third largest city in Greater Jakarta area which is split by one of the major rivers on the island of Java, namely the Cisadane River. With the increasing number of population and vehicle ownership, it is necessary to develop a public transportation network to reduce traffic volume and meet the needs of urban public transportation that is fast, easy, safe and comfortable for the citizen. The existence of the Cisadane River in Tangerang City has the potential to be developed into a public transportation route in the form of a waterway. Therefore, the right strategy is needed in the planning of river transportation. This study aims to analyze the influencing factors and strategic priorities in planning river transportation as urban public transportation using the Strength Weakness Opportunity Threat (SWOT) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods. In this study, a questionnaire was given to eight expert respondents related to river transportation. The respondents' answers were tested for consistency with AHP to ensure the accuracy of the answers. From the results of the SWOT analysis, it was obtained the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in river transportation planning, as well as the ST (Strength-Threat) strategy with the largest weight of 3.99 as the strategy to be used in planning river transportation. Then from the AHP analysis, the strategic priority results in planning river transportation were obtained, namely the safety criteria with a weight of 0.29 and alternative strategy for life jackets with a weight of 0.117853325 as the main priority in carrying out the chosen strategy. Respondents' answers are fairly accurate with a consistency ratio of 2.58% ≤ 10%.
Highlights
Congestion is a problem that is always faced by big cities in Indonesia
After analyzing the factors and weighting it, the step is to interact with a combination of internal and external strategies to obtain strategic alternatives in river transportation planning
The strategic combination interactions consist of: Strength - Opportunity (SO) (Strength-Opportunity) strategy which is a combination of strength and opportunity strategies; Strenght - Threat (ST) (Strength-Threat) strategy which is a combination of strength and threat strategies; the Weakness - Opportunity (WO) (Weakness-Opportunity) strategy which is a combination of weakness and opportunity strategies; and the Weakness - Threat (WT) (Weakness-Threat) strategy which is a combination of weakness and threat strategies
Summary
Congestion is a problem that is always faced by big cities in Indonesia. With the continued growth of the population, followed by the rampant of urban development, it will increase the number of trip generators which have an impact on the accumulation of vehicles on a road in a sustainable manner. Vehicle growth that is not matched by an increase in road capacity is one of the factors causing congestion [1]. To reduce the number of motorized vehicles on roads, it is necessary to develop a public transportation network that is fast, easy, safe and comfortable for the citizen. In addition to developing transportation networks in the form of buses and trains, river transportation in the form of boats can be developed in the Greater Jakarta area which is close to the riverside areas. The transportation system in an area can be used as an indicator of regional development because in a transportation system there is a need for transportation
