- Abstract
The Palembang city government has implemented Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) since 2010 until now, in order to carry out the replacement/renewal of the City Bus. The BRT in the city of Palembang called “BRT Trans Musi” consists of two business entities, namely BRT owned by BUMD SP2J (Palembang Jaya Development Facilities) and owned by the Ministry of Land Transportation, namely PT. TMPJ (Trans Musi Palembang Jaya). PT. TMPJ operates in Palembang on June 2, 2020, during the “Covid 19 Pandemic” in progress With its relatively recent operation, it is very necessary to conduct a study of BRT services at TMPJ, especially the Alang-Alang Lebar to Dempo corridor in order to be able to continue its operations. The method used in this study is direct traffic observation on the corridors traversed by BRT buses. From data analysis obtained: mean headway = 8 minutes; service time =29 seconds; travel time = 1 hour 56 minutes 15 seconds; operational speed = 20.85 km/hour and load factor = 50.02 %. This load factor if calculated based on the vehicle seat capacity = 0.261 %
