CALCULATION OF TRIP GENERATION OF INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES AROUND LEGOK STREET IN TANGERANG DISTRICT

Currently the industrial activities are the main sector in supporting the Indonesian economy. The trend of development of industrial estates is very high in Indonesia, and has been responded to positively by respective local governments who have provided locations for the industrial estates. However, there are still many industrial estates that have locations mixed with other activities, even those located on the main road. As a consequence, not only does it impact the surrounding economy and environment, but it also impacts the surrounding traffic. Considering industrial activities are trip generators, they cause traffic jams, delays, air pollution and noise. To date there has not been any reference for trip generation or the overall land usage for various types of activities, including trip generation of industrial activities in which their locations are mixed with other activities such as industrial activities located on Legok Street. Based on the results of traffic counting analysis in the busy hours, the level of service (LOS) of Legok Street is in the D classification (bad) with the value of 0.89 marked by unstable traffic. One of the causes of the bad level of service is the very high number of vehicles of the industrial activities e.g. 239 pcu/hour. That number is far above Industrial Ministry predictions as written in the Minister of Industry Regulation No. 40, 2016 regarding Technical Guidance for Industrial Estate Development. Therefore, supporting road services is required. Although the research survey was during peak hours, the results can be used as consideration in spatial planning. Results of this research in general may be used as reference in planning an industrial estate in other locations with similar characteristics, and may also be used to solve the transportation problems in the Legok main road.
