Abstract

The public's enthusiasm for commuter lane (light train) in Jakarta is now quite high with the addition of the number of passengers every year. Along with the addition of the number of passengers, train stations must also be able to accommodate the number of passengers. Therefore, the authors conducted a study to determine the feasibility of the platform in Station Pondok Cina for accommodating the addition of the number of passengers, in this case pedestrian's level of service is a feasibility parameter of the station. The study was conducted by comparing the existing condition of St. Pondok Cina's platform with the future condition in coming years. Existing condition is learned by survey in the field and then processed manually for determining the pedestrian's level of service. The future condition is made in simulating model and processed by PTV Viswalk to get an overview in the coming years. Model parameters are estimated based on existing condition parameters and passenger targets. The results of this study show the existing station design will not be able to accommodate the number of passenger plans. Level of service Station Pondok Cina is bad enough and will not be able to accommodate the additional number of passengers later, therefore the design of the plan station needs to be realized to meet the demand of passengers so the pedestrian's level of service, which are influenced by the size of the pedestrian area and the number of incoming access, can be preferable.
