Traffic management for MRT construction phase II bundaran HI - Kota

Abstract

MRT Construction Phase II, which is planned to be carried out in 2020, will cross Sarina, Harmoni, Glodok, Sawah Besar, Mangga Besar, and Kota Stations. The impact of this project during construction makes the road narrowing and causes longer queue length and delay of Harmoni Intersection, and vehicle travel time passes the site of construction. This research aims to determine traffic management and modeling using VISSIM, Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual (MKJI) 1997, and Indonesian Highway Capacity Guidance (PKJI) 2014 on Harmony Central. The value of queue length, delay, and travel time obtained from the existing condition will be used to estimate the traffic performance during construction. The increased queue length, delay, and travel time along the construction site will cause congestion to the previous intersection. The diversion plan needs to be done before the vehicle meets the busway flow that will be diverted caused by the relocation of the terminal to reduce the density of vehicles going into the Signalized Intersection Harmoni.
