Description
Summary:The City of Tangerang has a substantial proportion of commuter trips of 31,1% or 423.000 trips/day to DKI Jakarta. Transjakarta is an integrated public transportation service from sub-urban areas to Jakarta and vice versa. Transjakarta is provided as mass public transportation to reduce private vehicle usage mainly to Jakarta, yet Transjakarta has not been effectively utilized and has not reached fairly significant number of passengers. Park&Ride (PnR) is a strategy to encourage transit ridership. This study aims to examine factors affecting the willingness of commuters to shift the automobile usage and to use the PnR facility. By using Cross Tabulation method, the result shows that the distance travelled has correlation significantly with willingness to use PnR. Characteristics of PnR facility have more influence than travel characteristics on willingness commuter to use PnR. Lesson learned on this study is improving on PnR conditions is needed to encourage commuter to use Transjakarta.
