Comparison of the Performance of AKDP Route Network Systems in Gorontalo and Indonesia: A Meta-Analysis Approach

This study aims to compare the performance of the Angkutan Kota Dalam Provinsi (AKDP) route network system in Gorontalo Province with other regions in Indonesia using a meta-analysis approach. This study integrates data from various scientific literature and technical reports related to AKDP performance, which includes indicators such as route service coverage, route overlap, route deviation, route density, and route density ratio. The meta-analysis results indicate that the AKDP route system in Gorontalo has deficiencies in performance system aspects and alignment with local needs compared to other regions in Indonesia. Similarly, in terms of operational efficiency and sustainability, Gorontalo still faces significant challenges, particularly related to road infrastructure capacity and fleet management. These findings underscore the need for more integrated transportation planning and regulatory strengthening to improve the performance of the AKDP system, both in Gorontalo and nationally. This study makes an important contribution to the development of transportation policies based on empirical data and supports the planning of sustainable transportation systems. The meta-analysis approach used also offers a methodological framework that can be applied to similar studies in the future.
