Abstract

The relationship between transportation and people can also be seen when transportation is affected by major changes in society, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The City of Kupang until this research was carried out by the Government of the City of Kupang had extended the Implementation of Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) up to 4 times. Therefore measuring traffic performance is very important for government agencies managing traffic and individuals planning trips, especially when special events occur. The aim of this study was to measure the impact of COVID-19 on transportation to better guide institutions and communities to respond appropriately to changing traffic patterns. This research was conducted with basic principles based on the Indonesian Road Capacity Guidelines (PKJI2014) published by the Ministry of PUPR. The results showed that due to this pandemic, the Cak Doko road segment was the road that experienced the biggest change in the v/c ratio, namely from 2019 to 2021 the v/c ratio was 0.69, 0.29, and 0, respectively. 33. As for the other three roads, there were no significant changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
