ABSTRACT

The Semarang city government has designated Terboyo Terminal as a Type C Terminal, thereby making it into a parking facility for heavy vehicles. As a result of this policy, intercity bus services were moved from Terboyo Terminal to Penggaron Terminal. This study aimed to analyze the feasibility of transferring intercity bus services from Terboyo Terminal to Penggaron Terminal using a location theory approach. Descriptive analysis and analysis of user perceptions were carried out. The results of this study were: (1) Penggaron Terminal, in terms of the performance of its access road, has been crowded, and its location is far from other transit facilities, so its accessibility is poor. (2) From users’ perception, reaching Penggaron Terminal is more difficult and less profitable compared to reaching Terboyo Terminal. It was concluded that the location of Penggaron Terminal is not suitable for use for bus transfers from Terboyo.
