Public transport service relating to safety

Urban areas are experiencing rapid population growth now. The presence of public transport modes does not automatically solve transportation problems especially safety issues for users. This study presents the results of research on public transport services relating to safety, including the provision of public transportation services by government and private parties as well as the utilization of public transportation services by the public. Content surveys conducted on 332 public transport vehicles in the form of cars and buses. Public transportation data obtained through questionnaires and interviews at terminals, shelters, and centers in districts throughout Indonesia. The variation of public transport modes is limited to four-wheeled and conventional mode only. The results of the discussion show that public transport companies that organize public transportation on the route have not met the minimum service standards of public transport. The dominant facilities available on public transport are still below the minimum standard. The results of the discussion concluded that to improve the transport service for the government is required to play a role in making the policy of transport management and in law enforcement so that the transport service can be more integrated with transport network.
