<![CDATA[Transportation is a very necessary means. The use of transportation is currently a necessity that must exist and must be fulfilled, meaning that everyone who has or does not have a vehicle needs a means to travel, either using a private vehicle or public transportation. The need for transportation cannot be denied, this is because people need it for facilities when traveling. By using a vehicle, any distance can be covered in a relatively short time.This study aims to analyze the selection of public transportation modes on the Maros–Barru route, focusing on regional public transport and trains. The main objectives are to identify passenger characteristics in choosing between transportation modes and to analyze the factors influencing their preferences. A quantitative approach was used, with data analyzed through the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. The results show that passenger preferences are influenced by several criteria with the following weights: cost (8%), travel time (12%), convenience (19%), safety (30%), comfort (25%), and headway (6%). Based on the AHP analysis, trains are the preferred mode of transport with a proportion of 69%, while regional public transport accounts for 31%.]]>
