ABSTRACT
Public passenger transportation services between Palangka Raya and Banjarmasin, provided by travel operators, are essential and highly needed by the public. Currently, fares are still determined by operators, as there is no established fare system that takes into account the interests of passengers as service users. This study was conducted to determine fares based on operational vehicle costs (operator interests) and ATP/WTP rates (passenger interests). The method used adopted Decree of the Director General of Land Transportation No. 687/AJ.2006/DJRD. The method used was a questionnaire or direct interviews to obtain data on passenger numbers, operating hours, and load factors. From the data obtained, a Vehicle Operational Cost (VOC) analysis was conducted to determine the fare levels for travel transportation. The fare determination must also consider the ability (ATP) and willingness to pay (WTP) of passengers/travel users. The results of the study of the tariff amount based on BOK for the Palangka Raya – Banjarmasin Travel Route are IDR196,618.00 (upper limit tariff) and IDR178,484.00 (lower limit tariff). The ATP/WTP tariff amount for the Palangka Raya – Banjarmasin travel route is IDR170,000.00, while the applicable tariff is IDR180,000.00 and IDR200,000.00. As a form of evaluation, the planned tariff for the Palangka Raya – Banjarmasin Travel Route is IDR217,000.00 so that a subsidy from the local government is required for the company of at least IDR17,000.00 / passenger.
