Analysis of Accident-Prone Areas along the Ciawi–Puncak Road, Bogor
Purpose: This research aims to identify accident-prone locations along the Puncak road in Bogor and provide recommendations to the local government, especially the Department of Transportation, to improve traffic management and safety. The road is a strategic corridor connecting Bogor and Cianjur and serves as a key tourism route.
Research Methodology: The study applies a descriptive quantitative approach using literature review and primary and secondary data from relevant agencies. It incorporates spot speed analysis to measure vehicle speed at specific points using a radar meter, along with road characteristic analysis.
Results: The findings show that the average effective lane width of Jalan Raya Puncak is 4.2 meters, with a road capacity of approximately 3,565 pcu/hour. Traffic support facilities are still inadequate, with only about 7 traffic signs per kilometer in both directions. A total of 119 signs were identified, consisting of 16 prohibition signs, 24 directional signs, 5 command signs, and 74 warning signs. Field observations confirm that road equipment, particularly traffic signage, is insufficient.
Conclusions: Inadequate traffic facilities, particularly signage, contribute to accident risks. Improvements in infrastructure and traffic regulation are necessary to enhance road safety.
Limitations: The study focuses only on the Ciawi–Puncak segment and uses limited data, which may not reflect long-term patterns. It also does not consider external factors such as weather, driver behavior, and technology.
Contributions: This research provides input for the Department of Transportation to improve traffic control and safety measures in accident-prone areas.
