Transportation system impact on spatial interaction in Batang integrated industrial area

Abstract

The structure and use of urban land have a key role in a transportation system has significant impact on Batang land use. Because it is very influential on the demand and capacity of the transportation system related to human mobility. The relationship between land use and transportation systems can be defined in terms of spatial interaction. This spatial interaction arises because of the generation and attraction activity of the movement between two important entities. The higher the activity, the stronger the interaction will be. In addition, the form of urban spatial planning also greatly influences the interactions that occur. However, the problem is that if there is a large infrastructure project, it will tend to trigger changes in land use along with the spatial interactions in it. This article will examine in more depth the possibility of spatial interactions that occur in the Batang Regency due to the activities of the Batang Integrated Industrial Estate. So that it can be seen the dynamics of land-use changes that occur due to large spatial interactions in the area. The approach used in this research is quantitative deductive. The discussion in this article consists of several stages, namely a review of literature studies on land use and spatial interactions. Furthermore, the results of the review carried out the process of modeling the spatial interaction of transportation to describe the activities that occur in the area. The results show that the spatial interaction of transportation will be oriented along the main road axis and has a high intensity. Because the main road tends to be served efficiently by public transportation. However, in an area that is not traversed by the main road axis, spatial interactions still exist with random patterns and low intensity.
