Project Name: BRT and Modal Integration Planning and Capacity Building in Makassar |
Duration
December 2021 to November 2022 |
Client
GOPA Infra GmbH for GIZ |
Project Features
GIZ through the Indobus program is providing ongoing technical input for a BRT system in the South Sulawesi provincial capital Makassar. As of August 2022 the Makassar BRT is anticipated to receive EIB financing but is still subject to city-level approval processes and is not yet confirmed for implementation. The 30.2km Makassar BRT corridors include 6km of elevated BRT-only roads and are proposed to be served by 15 BRT routes using 43 BRT stations (42 in BRT corridors and one at the airport) and 133 off-corridor bus stops to be used by BRT routes. 123km of roads in Makassar will be covered by BRT services including a nearly 1km transit mall section along the coastal Pantai Losari to be combined with urban revitalization measures and coastal area traffic reorganization.

Makassar is a major provincial capital and Far East Mobility was the technical lead on the BRT design and carried out the operational planning for GOPA and GIZ in 2021 as part of the project Feasibility Study (FS). The project in 2022 involves intermittent input follow-up BRT planning and design building on the FS. Major work areas include surveys and data collection, BRT operational planning (especially the minibus or angkot sector impacts), capacity building, traffic impacts, and modal integration planning and design.
