Decision Support System to Determine Priorities for Handling Road Repair in Banten Province Using Analytical Hierarchy Process Method

Abstract

The Public Works and Spatial Planning Office of Banten Province is a government institution tasked with handling infrastructure such as roads, bridges, culverts, sidewalks and street lighting. In repairing roads and bridges it is necessary to make a priority plan to determine which roads and bridges need to be repaired. At present in determining priorities for road and bridge repairs, the Public Works Agency is getting information from the results of surveys and proposals from relevant agencies. From the results of surveys and agency proposals, information was obtained that many roads and bridges were damaged. Due to budget constraints from the government, the Public Works Agency must determine priorities regarding road conditions that must be improved first. The purpose of this study is to determine the priority of roads and bridges that must be repaired based on the criteria of the road that has suffered the most damage so it must be repaired immediately. The AHP method is used to find the best alternative from the many alternatives available about the survey information and related agency proposals regarding damaged roads. As a result, using the AHP method can determine priorities for road and bridge repair accurately.
