Abstract

The development of public transport in developing countries is inversely compared to the developed countries. The problem of low quality of service, lack of information, accidents, comfort, and pollution is a threat to the sustainability of public transport. Management of semi-paratransit transport individually, not in a legal entity making it unable to compete with the ease ownership of private vehicles as well as the development of online public transportation. In this research, we focused on evaluating the priority of solving the semi-paratransit transport problem in improving its sustainability in developing countries, so that the fundamental problems faced by the semi-paratransit transport and get the patterns of problem-solving. The evaluation method is designed by specifying the criteria and sub-criteria in detail. Population data, road networks, routes, the number of semi-paratransit transport, and survey data are determined and collected based on the framework of research needs. The data analysis was discussed by the analytical hierarchy process method. The results show the priority of solving problems from stakeholders, users, drivers, and managers of semi-paratransit transport with various criteria and sub-criteria. Development of public transportation can be done by building political will and action commitment and by the understanding of the existing problems
