A Simulated Policy towards Green Public Transportation in a Metropolitan in Indonesia

Abstract

The need for mode of transportation is proportional with urban population growth. The dependence of people using private transportation causes many problems. In addition to congestion, it can create environmental problems such as air quality deterioration and pollution in the cities. Learning to be in this research is the process of individual learning to move from private transportation to public transportation. The purpose of this study is to predict and opportunities for private decision using the public transportation toward green transportation in Semarang city. This research is designed using a quantitative approach. Respondents in this study were workers. Data collection methods with questionnaires. The samples are collected using proportional sampling technique. Data are analyzed with binary logistic regression. The results showed that the accessibility and tariff variables are significantly influence to predict private decision for using public transportation as an effort toward green transportation. Based on the policy simulation, the opportunity of using public transportation will be higher if the distance is closer and reachable. It will be getting lower if the tariff is raised when the other variables are constant. Therefore, to influence private decisions using the public transportation, the government must be oriented towards reachable distance and tariff.

Air Pollution Dynamics: Insights into Current Condition of Policy Framework and Future Strategy

“…Air pollution from transportation is a dominant sector that exhausts seventy percent of air pollutants into urban ambient air (Ambarwati, 2020). Meanwhile, here, a signi^icant portion of the population continues to rely on private automobiles as their primary mode of transportation instead of opting for public transit alternatives (Pujiati et al, 2022). Ultimately, the implementation of robust law enforcement measures is needed in order to effectively enforce air pollution restrictions (Hasyim et al, 2020).…”

The Implication of Energy Consumption, Corruption, and Foreign Investment for Sustainability of Income Distribution in Indonesia

“…The currently available literature provides a wealth of empirical, analytical evidence that explains income distribution and the level of corruption [36][37][38][39][40][41], energy consumption, pollution, and CO 2 emissions [31,32,[42][43][44], as well as macroeconomic perspectives such as FDI [45][46][47][48] and the growth rate [49,50]. We attempt to provide a succinct overview of the body of literature in this section.…”

potential of renewable energy sources in Java Island: a systematic literature review

“…One of Indonesia's main oil consumers among its numerous economic sectors is the country's road transportation industry. Huge energy demand from fuel has resulted in an annual consumption growth rate of roughly 4% due to the dominance of private vehicles, especially cars a,nd motorcycles, in the Indonesian transport modal mix (Dartanto, 2013;Pujiati et al, 2022;Setiawan, 2021;Widyaparaga et al, 2020). In addition, the transportation industry consumed over 64% of Indonesia's total oil in 2014 and produced 23% of the nation's emissions (Government of Indonesia, 2017).…”
