Data analysis uses panel data regression analysis method using Eviews12 software. Findings - The results showed that the percentage of bridge infrastructure in good condition has a positive significant effect (0.0232 < 0.05); the percentage of bridge infrastructure in bad condition has a negative significant effect (0.0050 < 0.05); the total population has a positive significant effect (0.0000 < 0.05); while the land area has no significant effect (0.5067 > 0.05).
