Abstract

This study was motivated by the case of the disappearance of legal bus services due to their loss in competition with a kind of car services called “Travel” for the corridor of Padang - Pesisir Selatan, West Sumatera, Indonesia. Travel might not legal public transport services, and therefore, in this study is also called un-official public transportation. This study aims to determine the driving attributes for passenger’s satisfaction of un-official public transportation services and to figure out the service attributes that need to be improved according to passengers’ perceptions. Data was collected using random sampling with a total sample of 160 respondents and was analyzed using the Importance Satisfaction Analysis (ISA) method. Quadrant analysis of ISA revealed that the availability of music and air conditioner on-board is not so essential but resulting a higher satisfaction to passengers. Passengers are calling for an improvement of the services by consistently implementing the law against a driver who uses a mobile phone while driving or driving inconsiderately, and improving the courtesy and friendliness of the driver.

Abstract

Shredded Waste Tires are industrial materials that can be used in the asphalt mixture. The use of tires increases every day, considering the number of vehicles that grow from year to year. Using used tires is highly recommended for efforts to reduce waste that will harm the environment. The research aims to see the effect of adding shredded tires in a pavement mixture based on Marshall Value. The AC-BC pavement layer is not directly in contact with wheel load. Still, it must have sufficient thickness and stiffness to minimise stress or strain from traffic loads continuously transferred from the top of the pavement. The most important characteristic of the AC-BC is its stability. The optimum asphalt content value in the AC-BC mixture is 6.81%, mixed with various shredded waste tires. The Asphalt Concrete-Binder Course blended with 1.5%, 3.5%, 5.5% and 7.5% of the various shredded waste tire. The optimum shredded tire content was obtained at 3.5%, with the stability value increased by 2.1% from 1581.98 to 1614.88 kg, with a flow value of 5.43 mm, and a Marshall Quotient value of 297.4 kg/mm.

Abstract

Padang has been determined to be a livable city in 2024, according to the Mission of the City Major 2019-2024. Some improvements have been made, such as more BRT corridors, widening the sidewalk, and adding benches along the sidewalks. However, achieving a livable city is far more than just those thingies; we also need to know what people need and what the government is willing to do. This study explores the determinant factors in achieving the livable city criterion for Padang, especially regarding transportation-related variables in the expert views along and public and government interests. The quadrant analysis of Expectation-Performance and Effort-Effect Analysis was used to identify the determinant and priority factors in improving the livability of Padang. The results show that improving some essential elements has satisfied public expectations. Still, more things need to do, such as an integrated transportation system, comfortable public transportation, transportation for disabled persons, and a more environmentally friendly transportation mode. With less effort and high effect, the most priority factors are comfortable and secure pedestrian facilities, improving traffic to reduce travel time, and improving public transport facilities.
