Urban bus reform so-called Trans Koetaradja (TK) is regarded as a potential urban transport policy aiming at alleviating autos traffic congestion and mitigating highly private mode dependency in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The new bus system proposed by the Government has been operated since early 2018, and it remains free of fare services due to subsidy provide by the Government as the bus corridors have been expanded the budget getting escalating year by year. To reduce the burden of subsidies, the Government intends to drop monetary aid by applying full fare for the bus. However, declining the subsidy could affect bus ridership, especially low-income households whose captive riders may not afford the ticket. It hypothesizes that the travel cost budget (TCB) has significantly influenced the ability to pay for a particular household to afford the bus fare. The TCB for this study defines the maximum amount of money allocated by a specific family for their transportation within a month. Therefore, this study is aiming at exploring factors that effecting the households' transportation expenditures, taking into account household life stages (HLS) among TK' bus users. The use of revealed preference data obtained in 2019, the regression analysis of the ordinary least square (OLS) method, was used to calibrate and teste the exogenous variables across HLS. To simplify, the HLS in this study is segmented as early, middle, and established HLS. The distribution of TCB across HLS revealed that the share of transport expenditure on average to their monthly income had shared about 10-11 %. The finding from the OLS indicates that the variables of the female gender, monthly income, and the number of owned motorcycles have significant contributions to the TCB. The most significant finding is the impact of monthly income on the TCB across HLS. It exhibited early, and middle HLS has shown more spending share on income compared to the established HLS
On-street parking leads to reduced road capacity and decreased traffic performance of the certain road. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of on-street parking based on road performance. The study was conducted at Central Business District namely Peunayong, Banda Aceh. Based on the Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual (IHCM) one of the performance parameter values is Degree of Saturation (DS). The data needed for calculation of DS are the geometric conditions, traffic volume and the side frictions. The results indicate that on-street parking facilities on segment 2 of Khairil Anwar Street should be evaluated, as the DS value is greater than 0.75 (unstable road condition), by changing parking patterns into a parallel configuration or eliminating parking facilities. Furthermore, the parking configuration of R.A. Kartini Street also needs to be rearranged. Despite the stable road performance, this road is uncomfortable to pass because there is only one lane remained due to unfeasible parking patterns and existence of street market along the segment. The road performance of Khairil Anwar Street (segment 1), Ahmad Yani Street, W.R Supratman Street, T.P. Polem Street, Twk. Daudsyah Street and Ratu Safiatuddin Street is in stable condition, with DS < 0.75. This indicating that on-street parking facilities can be maintained. While as for the W.R. Supratman and Ahmad Yani Street should be evaluated in year of 2019 to avoid traffic jam along this corridors.
AKDP movement has been declining lately based on an interview survey conducted on AKDP operators that it can be seen that the number of people using L-300 cars is on average above 5 passengers and the average does not meet the available passenger seats of 11 to 16 seats . The current condition shows that people tend to use private transportation / cars compared to public transportation. Judging from the condition of the AKPD in Aceh today many people use private vehicles to make movements. The purpose of this study was to determine the performance of AKDP transport in Aceh Province using the load factor approach. The method used is the Directorate General of Land Transportation method in 2002 and refers to the Decree of Dirjendat No. 274, 1996. Data collection was carried out by means of a static survey using the interview method. From the calculation results it can be seen that the load factor of the regular operating AKDP is 64.55%. This reflects that the level of service is still in good condition ie on regular routes totaling 44 routes, while the total number of routes is 321 which operates irregularly. By not operating 277 routes on a regular basis it can be seen that people tend to use private vehicles when traveling. Keywords: AKDP; Public Transport Performance; Minibus; Load Factor __________________________ Abstrak Pergerakan AKDP Akhir-akhir ini semakin menurun berdasarkan survei wawancara yang telah dilakukan terhadap operator AKDP bahwa dapat diketahui jumlah yang menggunakan mobil L-300 rata-rata di atas 5 penumpang dan rata-rata tidak memenuhi kursi penumpang yang tersedia yaitu 11 sampai dengan 16 seat. Kondisi saat ini, menunjukkan masyarakat cenderung menggunakan angkutan pribadi/ mobil dibandingkan dengan angkutan umum. Dilihat dari kondisi AKPD di Aceh saat ini banyak masyarakat menggunakan kendaraan pribadi dalam melakukan pergerakan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah ingin mengetahui kinerja angkutan AKDP di Provinsi Aceh dengan pendekatan load factor. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode Ditjen Perhubungan Darat tahun 2002 dan mengacu pada SK Dirjendat No. 274, 1996. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan cara survei statis dengan metode wawancara. Dari hasil perhitungan dapat diketahui nilai load factor AKDP yang beroperasi reguler adalah 64,55 %. Ini mencerminkan bahwa tingkat pelayanan masih dalam keadaan baik, yaitu pada trayek reguler yang berjumlah 44 trayek, sedangkan jumlah trayek seluruhnya adalah 321 yang beroperasi tidak reguler. Dengan tidak beroperasinya 277 trayek secara reguler dapat diketahui bahwa masyarakat cenderung menggunakan kendaraan pribadi dalam berpergian.

The presence of sidewalks is very important to support the safety, comfortability, and activities of pedestrians in CBD (Central Business District). Therefore, this study was conducted to analyze the service quality of the pedestrian lanes in two CBDs of Banda Aceh City using the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) method. The results showed most of the service quality variables of the sidewalks are in quadrant A (concentrate here), followed by C (low priority), D (possible over-skill), and B (keep up the good work). This means the qualities of the sidewalk services need to be improved to ensure their performances are in line with pedestrians' expectations. This is necessary because most of the width and height of these sidewalks were found through field investigation not to meet government standards, whereas several obstacles were also discovered such as the presence of traders, merchandises, and parked vehicles, as well as the lack of seating facilities and disability lanes. These violations are part of the problems in many cities of Indonesia and other developing countries and are due to the lack of public awareness and supervision by the authorities. Therefore, further improvement is recommended to realize the expected pedestrian path.
