"THE SEARCH FOR EQUILIBRIUM IN PEOPLE MOVEMENTS

Suyono Dikun, PhD Transportaion Bureau, Bappenas

The Wisdom :

Our unity as nation is sustained by free communication of thought and by easy transportation of people and goods .... Together, the uniting forces of our .communication and transportation systems are dynamic elements in the very name we bear- United States, Without them, we would be a mere alliance of many separate parts (President Dwight D Eisenhower message to Congress, February 22, 1955)

While our world is now in the process of shrinking and reshaping due to the transport technology, our big cities, paradoxically, are enlarging, and overcrowding in such a way that even the same technology is not able to overcome time and distance.

It is the movement of people that matters, not the movement of such mechanical deices as motorized private vehicles.

Urban transportations (and its related issues) is perceived to be a domain where complexity and mega-conflicts prevail : population concentration vs employment deconcentration.

Urbanization vs rural empowerment

Old fashioned, "power approach" law vs development, "welfare approach" law."academic thought" spatial planning vs economic driven urban activities. Economic growth vs regional disparity. High intensity of development vs land carrying capacity land use vs transport services (endless cycles) vehicle movement vs people movements mass rapid transit vs urban expressway comfort movements of the affluent vs forgotten transport disadvantages no government intervention vs redistribution of income environmental depletion vs taking nature into account

Problem Statements ( in Search of the Equilibrium)

1. The problem of urban congestion has become so great that we are coming to the conclusion that there could be sufficient highway space and parking capacity to permit the movement of all people in private cars.

2. Expressways and parking facilities not only will solve the problem of congestion but will actually make it worse. Elaborate urban expressways are futile because of the tremendous reservoir of traffic waiting to absorb any new street capacity.

3. Those who try to accommodate private cars "is doomed to inevitable failure; the better they do their job the greater will be their failure".

4. The cities just cannot resign themselves to private cars and let mass transportation slide to ruin and extinction, They must preserve mass transportation or stagnate. Downtown is doomed to die unless cities streets movement of people rather than movement of vehicles.

5. Neither private cars nor mass transportation nor any other mechanical contrivance can solve the problems of urban congestion. As a solution of the traffic problem these devices are pure deception. Putting the emphasis on supplying transportation facilities rather than controlling the demand: serves only to aggravate congestion is long , as nothing is done fundamentally to rehabilitate the cities themselves, the quicker will people forsake them and the greater the problems for those left behind to cope with.

6. Private cars and mass transportation are both guilty of promoting congestion; and that have resulted in the .successful attempt to crowd too many people and too much economic activity into too little space.

7. Metropolitan areas face difficult task of arriving at decisions than will determine the physical and financial future of tomorrow's city.

8. Emphasizing expressways and parking facilities to accommodate private car use, or modernizing mass transportation facilities to reduce the number of vehicles entering the city? Or will solutions depend instead on the extensive replanning and rebuilding of the city?

THE EQUILIBRIUM

The solution of urban transport massive congestion does not he in ;her two extremes MRT or Urban Expressways.

The solution lies in between, not only between those two system but in the equilibrium among transport supply systems, between supply and demand slides, between capital and non-capital management strategies, between public and private initiatives, and between growth and environmental quality.

The equilibrium is represented by an integrated, intermodal transport system which is safe, efficient, reliable and professional, where urban trip makers can have modal choice given by economically competitive services and their perceived travel time values.

For our big cities, the equilibrium can only be achieved by undertaking reforms and restructuring of our institutional settings dealing with urban transport, legal and regulator frameworks supporting the system, capacity building of the human resources, pricing and cost policy of urban travels, management skills and software's, and private sector participation.

The center point is of course of having a strong political will, emerging to the surface because of professional support systems, provided by professional transport groups/ organization."

"ABSTRAKBelakangan ini transportasi barang perkotaan (Urban Freight Transport) memiliki berbagai macam masalah, termasuk kemacetan yang diakibatkannya. Sistem transportasi barang dituntut untuk menghasilkan biaya yang rendah. Pada dasarnya untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut, konsep Green Urban Freight adalah jawabannya. Konsep ini didesain bukan hanya untuk ramah lingkungan, tetapi juga berfungsi ekonomis. Paper ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa tingkat pengetahuan dan kesadaran pemangku kepentingan terhadap Green Urban Freight Transport(GUFT). Metode yang digunakan adalah melalui survey wawancara untuk berbagai tema terkait GUFT kepada pemangku kepentingan seperti residents di wilayah Pulo Gadung, Tanjung Priok dan Kelapa Gading. Pemangku kepentingan lainnya adalah freight carriers di Indonesia. Hasil dari paper ini adalah secara umum tingkat kesadaran dari residents lebih tinggi dibandingkan tingkat pengetahuannya, tetapi pada pemangku kepentingan freight carriers tingkat pengetahuannya lebih tinggi dibandingkan tingkat kesadarannya. Terdapat korelasi yang cukup signifikan antar berbagai tema GUFT dalam hal tingkat pengetahuan dan kesadaran. Hal ini memberikan makna bahwa tema-tema dalam GUFT sudah cukup diketahui dan disadari keterhubungannya.

ABSTRACTThese days, there are various problems regarding urban freight transportation, one of which is traffic congestion. The transportation system is expected to have a small cost. The solution to these problems is the Green Urban Freight Concept. This Concept is designed not only to be environmentally friendly, but also economical. This paper analyzes the level of knowledge and awareness of certain stakeholders regarding Green Urban Freight Transport, or GUFT. The method that is used to collect information is a survey that involves topics related to GUFT. The survey is spreaded to certain stake holders such as residents residing in Pulo Gadung, Tanjung Priok, and Kelapa Gading. Freight carrier companies are also accounted as stake holders that affect the urban freight transportation. The result of this paper is that, in general, the level of awareness of residents, residing in said locations, is higher than their level of knowledge regarding GUFT, Whereas in freight carrier companies, their level of knowledge is higher that their level of awareness regarding GUFT. There is significant correlation about the level of awareness and knowledge in various GUFT topics. This reveals that the topics in GUFT are well known and are correlated."

"Skripsi ini membahas persepsi mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia terhadap kualitas pelayanan KRL Commuter Line rute Jakarta-Bogor. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian dengan menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan tujuan deskriptif dimana peneliti berusaha untuk menggambarkan kualitas pelayanan KRL Commuter Line berdasarkan persepsi mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menyarankan bahwa pelayanan KRL Commuter Line perlu ditingkatkan dari segi frekuensi perjalanan, ketepatan waktu, fasilitas pendukung, penyesuaian harga, pusat informasi mengenai jadwal, layanan informasi dalam gerbong, kemampuan petugas, keamanan, kebersihan serta kenyamanan dalam gerbong KRL Commuter Line, guna memberikan pelayanan maksimal kepada penumpang.

The focus of this study is about the student’s perceptions in University of Indonesia about service quality of the KRL Commuter Line especially in Jakarta- Bogor’s route. This is a quantitative’s research with the descriptive purpose, in which researcher try to describe service quality of KRL Commuter Line based on tudent’s perception in University of Indonesia.

The result suggests that services of the KRL Commuter Line should be improve in many ways, such as the requency of schedule, accuration of time, facilities, adequacy of the price, nformation centre about the schedule, information service in the cab of KRL Commuter Line, ability of the officer, security, cleanliness, and also comfortness cab of the KRL Commuter Line, for give a maximum service for the passenger."
