The growth of Makassar City as a center of economic and tourism activities has increased traffic intensity, particularly along the main corridor of Jalan Metro Tanjung Bunga and its surrounding areas. The rising vehicle volume and variations in traffic speed on this road have generated environmental impacts such as noise pollution, which affect the quality of life of nearby residents. This study aims to analyze the relationship between vehicle volume and traffic speed and their contribution to environmental impacts along Jalan Metro Tanjung Bunga. The research employs a quantitative descriptive approach using traffic counting surveys conducted on both weekdays and weekends, from 07:00 WITA to 21:00 WITA. Data collected include vehicle volume by type, average traffic speed, and environmental parameters such as noise levels. The data were analyzed descriptively to illustrate traffic and environmental conditions. The findings are expected to provide empirical insights into traffic flow patterns and pollution levels in the study area, highlighting the significant contribution of transportation activities to environmental impacts. These results are intended to serve as a foundation for policymakers and stakeholders in formulating sustainable transportation strategies that minimize negative environmental effects while supporting mobility in Makassar City.
