The Palima -Baros road section as a connecting road between Serang City and Pandeglang Regency has a fairly high traffic flow, as can be seen from the density of the road during morning and afternoon rush hours and weekends. Congestion often occurs on roads that have a surface layer in the form of flexible pavement. The existing condition of the 3.25 m wide road, (2/2-UD, 0.5 m shoulder and unmaintained drainage, has a lost of service level category at level C (2021-2025) and is at level F in 2032. Efforts widening as one of the solutions to overcome congestion was chosen by analyze an alternative road widening routes. The method used is quantitative analysis, processing survey data based on the economic value, environmental, social impact, and length of route. The results show that the alternative route widening 1 (one) is the most good to choose, the score of the level of economic feasibility is 1.6 with environmental and social impacts of 0.8 (the smallest) and the length of the track is 585 m (shorter than other alternative routes, 705 m).
