Abstract

Transportation is one of the most important and strategic of basic needs in daily life. Increased the use of motor vehicles and energy consumption in cities give an impact on air pollution, traffic jam, and public health disorder. The purpose of this research is estimate of Carbon Monoxide (CO) pollutants received in receptors on Arterial Roads in Makassar City. This research was conducted in A.P. Pettarani, Sultan Alauddin, Urip Sumoharjo, and Perintis Kemerdekaan road in peak hour of the morning, afternoon, and evening. Analysis of measurement data is using software WRPLOT View and CALINE-4.
