Abstract

Teuku Umar University (UTU) is a public university located in West Aceh Regency. The number of active students at UTU was recorded as 6,636 in the academic year 2021-2022. Currently, the UTU campus lacks public transportation serving its vicinity. This study aims to identify the daily activities of UTU students in commuting to the campus and to determine the extent of students' response to the implementation of public transportation services within a ±5 KM buffer zone from the UTU campus. This research utilizes two types of data analysis methods, namely qualitative descriptive and quantitative descriptive. The research findings indicate that 93.5% of students strongly agree with the concept of implementing public transportation, and 75.3% of students agree to switch from private vehicles to public transportation. The majority of daily travel activities are conducted by female students, accounting for 54% compared to 46% of male students. The modes of transportation used to reach the campus are motorcycles (56%), bicycles (6%), and walking (38%). Regarding the frequency of departure times to the campus, 41% of students depart at 08:00 AM, 23% at 09:40 AM, 15% at 10:30 AM, 12% at 11:20 AM, 6% at 01:50 PM, and 3% depart at 04:20 PM. As for the frequency of return times, 16% return at 01:30 PM, 21% at 11:20 AM, 34% at 01:50 PM, 10% at 03:30 PM, 16% at 04:20 PM, and 3% return at 05:10 PM. Based on this study, we recommend developing a dedicated public transportation service concept for UTU students. Data on students' daily activities can serve as crucial input for the future development of public transportation projects.

Abstract

UTU (UTU) is a state university in the western part of Indonesia, the province of Aceh, with 6,636 active students (2022) having the characteristics of a building that is integrated in the existing conditions and does not yet have public transportation facilities that serve student activities in the ±5KM buffer zone. Based on the daily pilot activity survey, more students live near campus and travel using private vehicles, walking and cycling, so the concept of implementing the shuttle bus is very helpful for students as a means of transportation to campus. This research uses qualitative and quantitative descriptive data analysis methods. The purpose of this study is to find out how much student response is to the concept of implementing shuttle bus services, carry out buffer zone mapping and desire lines at a ±5KM radius to find out potential zones and routes. The results of the study 93.5% of students strongly agreed with the implementation of the shuttle bus, 75.3% of students agreed to switch modes of transportation from private vehicles to shuttle buses. Based on the buffer zone mapping of the desire line results, there are 5 zones with the maximum movement potential, namely zone C (ADB 1 Housing) 1092 movements on the route Jln. Alue peunyareng-Jln. Pramuka.
