Busway is a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) or bus rapid transport system which began officially put into operation by the Jakarta administration. Busway is a mass transit alternative solution offered by the government in major cities so that citizens can enjoy public transport is fast, convenient, and safe. Busway is not merely a means of mass transportation alone, but also serves as a bus tour of the city. The operation of the busway is also a local government strategy to reduce congestion on major roads in major cities, especially the capital city of Jakarta. There are 4 main reasons why people prefer to use the Jakarta busway is compared to other public transport, namely low rates, can connect different places in Jakarta with a faster, more convenient. Most frequent complaints of the faithful busway passengers today are long and the length of queues at bus stops and shelters. Especially at rush hour (especially in and out of office hours). Passengers also must be willing to jostle on the bus. The main cause is the busway fleet and transport capacity can not keep pace with the number of passengers resulting in the accumulation of passengers. This condition is exacerbated by the encroachment of other road users that enter the busway lane busway thereby further inhibiting the rate to be the right time to stop.
As a result, long queues and scramble action entry with push each other so the bus stopped at the stop was inevitable. Less than optimal care is also perceived to be quite disturbing for the busway passengers. Unscrupulous drivers who sometimes likes reckless or that do not turn on the notification destination stop. So the guards were shouting pintulah stop destination to make passengers feel like riding metromini busway. Moreover, the absence of an image map on the bus to make passengers who are not familiar with these routes busway, especially foreign tourists, into confusion. The map is displayed on the busway shelters are not uncommon letters and pictures are too small or located too high so that passengers still have to ask the doorman. Of passengers also complained of worsening of amenities, facilities, and infrastructure. Sometimes the passengers should avoid droplets of water falling from the roof stops leaking when it rains or from the roof of the bus because of a broken air conditioner. Pedestrian bridge is too long, far, and high, sometimes perforated, it is not friendly to children, pregnant women, the elderly (seniors), especially for the disabled. Although there are several bridges in the elevator, but the condition was broken and unfit for use.
Not to mention the numerous stations and bridges were abandoned because there is still unused though it was long established. As occurs in the infrastructure along Prumpung towards Tanjung Priok and direction of Cawang Sky View. With regards to security, to date crime cases inside the busway arguably still rare. In contrast, the case of woe which it often occurs. Most accidents occur mainly caused by the lack of public discipline. In this case road users in traffic, for example the action serobot other vehicles or people who carelessly cross. Most of them are still often ignore regulations with special grab TransJakarta bus lanes. The act of annexation of this pathway not only has the potential to cause an accident, but it also makes jams. Meanwhile, the case of burning and exploding busway is due to a disturbance in the electrical cord ampere AC dynamo. Sometimes there is also a busway driver parked the bus at the bus stop with a fairly wide range, so that when the full stop and passengers jostling one another, the risk of falling from the lips of a very large high door. As a solution, the existence of the busway, especially in Jakarta, is now even considered to be the cause of congestion and accidents.
For example, the addition of fleet units TransJakarta feeder bus (the bus that connects multiple local feeder to the nearest busway shelters). and construction of shelters and gas refueling stations (SPBBG) is done in stages. In addition, in some areas also built an electronic portal and manually in anticipation of annexation busway lanes. Bridge facility, shelter, or a damaged bus also trying repaired. However, the root of all the problems above is actually not simply due to lack of maturation of the concept of planning, development, and management of infrastructure, facilities, advice, and busway infrastructure, but human resource development without the development and management of quality that becomes chaotic. Therefore, it is very important to human resource development activities and cooperation between governments, operators and workers busway. User as well as society as a busway. One of the human resource activities that can be done is holding training for operators and drivers busway so has the awareness to provide the best possible public service to the community. Especially training for drivers to produce drivers who obey traffic rules and the importance of safety. as well as passenger comfort. On the other hand, local governments are making and make the policy also should have the sensitivity to accommodate the needs of its citizens, especially those who have special needs, to the design and construction of transport infrastructure, in particular the busway.
