Planning and Implementation of Intelligent Transport System in DKI Jakarta Province

Abstract

Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) is a transportation management solution using intelligence technology for integration between road networks, modes of transportation systems, and users. The implementation of ITS was started in 2010 in DKI Jakarta to overcome congestion problems. This system manages and uses data sources that are shared between various information management systems that integrate several tools, namely CCTV, Auto Traffic Control System (ATCS), and Camera Counting. Though the Government of DKI Jakarta has performed well in terms of planning and implementation, unfortunately, several problems are still hindering the success of ITS development, following planning and regulation basis, stakeholder cohesiveness, public awareness, and infrastructure development. A cohesive action should be taken in order to encourage participation from the whole stakeholders. A public campaign that encourages people to shift from private vehicles to public transport should be given priority to reduce the service burden on the highway and traffic congestion, at the same time increasing the return on public transportation investment.
