Abstract

The eastern region of Indonesia, Papua, decentralized government administration has been divided into 2 (two) provinces, namely West Papua Province with provincial capital of Manokwari and Papua Province with provincial capital of Jayapura. Judging from the history of all the existing provinces, the last territory of independence becomes part of the territory of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. The Republic of Indonesia was established in 1945, and this easternmost region entered as part of the territory of the Republic of Indonesia in 1962. The number and density of its population are the fewest. The development of this area continues to be carried out, various concepts of development planning continue to be developed and implemented. Progress was achieved in several aspects of community life. However, the results achieved have not been as expected. The infrastructure network that has been built has not been successful in balancing the issues of inequality and equity in the context of the whole of Indonesia as a unified infrastructure system that supports all sectors of the lives of citizens, especially the economic and social sectors. Infrastructure is meant here is the infrastructure that is the responsibility of the government in the ministry of communications and the ministry of public works and public housing.
 
 Constraints of topographic conditions, rare population, cultural perceptions, and distance coverage of the already advanced areas are issues that need to be addressed and solved alternative solutions. The system constraints of all infrastructure and the priority of which components must be built first and the priority of the location also become individual issues, which in this system will also include power supply system, fuel, and cement as the main material of infrastructure building.
 
 This paper summarizes and discusses some of the results of discussions and studies related to the acceleration of infrastructure development in Papua.

Summary

Introduction

From the period of government to the government period over the last forty years, the acceleration of the development of western irian or irian jaya which is currently the prpvinsi of West Papua and Papua continues to generate new ideas in the concept of acceleration of development of the region that challenge more difficult than the territory of the Republic of Indonesia others. Ideas and concepts on the acceleration of development of the Papua and West Papua region are still few that are written in the path of academic articles. Road network planning includes connectivity between Papua, West Papua, including the linkages between cities on the north coast, intercity towns on the north coast and central mountains, and between the two with southern Papua. The Second Line, the central mountainous region is connected by land routes from Nabire, Puncak Jaya, Mulia, Wamena, Jayapura. The problem of road construction in connecting areas along the southern coast between Timika-Agats-Merauke is the confluence of rivers. In this area the development of river transportation becomes an important thing. The hope is that the West Papua and Papua provinces can align the level of development, economic growth, and the welfare of its citizens with other regions in Indonesia in a fair and equitable way
