Analysis of Modal Shift to Support MRT-Based Urban Transportation in Jakarta

Abstract

As a metropolitan city with large population, Jakarta requires adequate public transportation system for its alternative solution to support the activities of people. Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) is a public transportation system that goes in high mobility rate to transfer or carry passengers in large number without entry barriers This paper study about prospective passengers of Jakarta’s MRT, their interest to shift in commuting choices into MRT, willingness to shift (WTS), and willingness to pay (WTP). The research used stated preference with direct surveyes to customer. The analysis of modal shift (WTS and WTP) was conducted by parameters of urban transport: affordability, availability, accessibility, and acceptability. The result is most of respondents are willing to shift to MRT because of its faster, more comfortable, no traffic jam, more safe, cheaper, and other, and they even willing to pay additional fare from their current mode. And people who unwilling to shift to MRT due to the distance of the nearest stations is too far.

However, defining acceptability and its constituent parts is a prerequisite to conducting an acceptance review (Baum et al, 2019;Febriani et al, 2020;Ushakov et al, 2022c).

Analysis for the sustainability of intelligent transport systems in the United States

“…Road congestion in the United States is mostly caused by an increase in population, the number of cars on the road, and the number of vehicle miles travelled (VMT). Countless reports over the last decade have shown the seriousness of the traffic congestion issue according to (Febriani et al, 2020;Ushakov, 2022a;Dudukalov et al, 2020). For instance, in 2011, yearly VMT in the United States hit 2.97 trillion miles, a rise of 8% from before the 2008 financial crisis.…”

Increasing MRT Jakarta Non-Farebox Revenue Through Optimizing Station Naming Rights

“…The system has been operational since March 2019 and has 13 stations along its route [4]. The MRT Jakarta system is a component of the city's rapid transit initiative, which aims to provide an alternative solution to support the activities of people in the city [5]. Nevertheless, MRT Jakarta has another mandate in addition to constructing and operating its services, which is to develop and manage properties/businesses at stations and their surroundings, as well as depots and the surrounding areas.…”
