Traffic Impact Analysis Due to the Construction of Type B Terminals in Paser Regency Traffic Impact Analysis due to the Construction of Type B Terminal in Paser Regency
Abstract
This study aims to get an overview of the impact of traffic caused by the construction of type B terminals in Paser Regency on existing conditions and construction period. Based on Law number 22 of 2009 article 99 paragraph 1, it is stated that "Any plan to build a center of activity, settlements, and infrastructure that will cause disturbances in security, safety, order, and smooth running of traffic and road transport must be carried out a traffic impact analysis". The results of the disclaimer on activities based on the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation No. 17 of 2021 are included in the category of moderate rise. The results of the analysis of the performance of 11 road sections show that the condition of the road service level in the existing condition is the same as the condition during the construction period, namely having an LOS value = A to C which means that there are no problems with the condition of the existing road sections, both in existing conditions and in construction conditions. Meanwhile, the results of the performance assessment at the intersection are 2 intersections, showing the existing conditions and construction period conditions of the LOS value of the intersection is B, which means that there is no disturbance in the existing intersection conditions. The recommendation of this study is that it is necessary to regulate the circulation and maneuvering of construction vehicles so as not to cause traffic disturbances on sections and intersections around the site of type B terminal construction activities in Paser Regency.

Introduction
The construction of an infrastructure in general can have a certain impact on the movement of traffic around it. The magnitude of the impact on traffic that occurs needs to be carried out a study so that problems that have the potential to occur can be handled wisely. This traffic study was carried out on the Paser Type B Passenger Terminal Development plan to predict the impact resulting from these activities at each stage.
The impact of traffic that occurs is the impact of the emergence of new journeys that originate from each stage of activity, changes in the flow of movement at each stage of activity, as well as from the traffic flow that increases every year. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive study on traffic aspects for these operational plan activities by collecting primary and secondary data to find out how the impact of the operation of Paser Type B Passenger Terminal on the traffic network around the study site.
Based on Law number 22 of 2009 article 99 paragraph 1, it is stated that "Every plan to build activity centers, settlements, and infrastructure that will cause disturbances in security, safety, order, and smooth running of traffic and road transportation must be carried out a traffic impact analysis".
Conclusion
Based on the results of the analysis and discussion it can be concluded as follows:
1. Based on Law number 22 of 2009 article 99 paragraph 1 it states that "Every plan for the development of activity centers, settlements and infrastructure that will cause disturbances to security, safety, order and the smooth running of traffic and road transportation must be carried out a traffic impact analysis”.
2. Based on Minister of Transportation Regulation No. 17 of 2021 it is stated that the construction of the type B terminal in Paser Regency is in the medium generation category.
3. The results on the performance of the sections and the performance of the intersections around the terminal construction site, do not show a significant level of traffic disturbance, meaning that it is only necessary to regulate the circulation of project vehicles carrying out activities in the field with recommendations from the results of the Andalanin assessment. This can be seen from the calculation of the existing LOS and LOS Construction results in the LOS C category and the intersection performance of the existing LOS B condition is the same as the calculation results during the construction period which shows the value of LOS B as well.
