KAPASITAS INFRASTRUKTUR ANGKUTAN KERETA API LOGISTIK

Abstract

Very limited capacity of the highway in some economies tract, such as the
Trans Java traffic, has an impact on increasing the travel time especially in the
use of rail transport, so that a certain pathway requires capacity building and
the development of new lines gradually. The purpose of this research was to
determine the capacity of rail transport infrastructure that is optimal for the
distribution of goods, especially as the company managed by PT. Railway
Logistics or KALOG. Another problem is how the government's role and the
flow of freight transport demand. In the discussion, through a variety of existing
data, the authors use research with phenomenological approach on the basis of
qualitative analysis methods interpretative paradigm. Results are expected to
be useful for improving knowledge about the needs of rail freight transport on
goods distribution on the Java Island. The results of this research will be
published in scientific journals.
