Daftar Isi:
- With the estimation of the Indonesian population increase reaching 222,753 million in the year 2000 (ESCAP, 1984), the needs for a spatial planning, an effort to optimize the land use, and an efficient development planning without damaging the environment will be very urgent in the coming years. Like the other developing countries, Indonesia nowdays enters a certain phase of growing urbanization. The slow growing city of Yogyakarta is escorted by the increase of population, population density, and also by the growing number of motorcycles and motor cars which has raised transportation problems in the city and its surroundings. There are other factors raising urban transportation problems, though the factors mentioned before are dominant. Some of those factors are: W. the agglomeration of congestion or absorbing centres/ buildings in a row, (ii) the various vehicles, both motorized and non-motorized, using the same road for there are no separating strips except the road connecting the Tugu (monument) and Alunalun (square) near Kraton (Yogyakarta Sultanate palace). (iii) the low carrying capacity of the roads in the city especially at peak hours, (iv) a shortage of wide parking areas, and (v) only a small percentage of land area in the city is used for traffic.
