Abstract

Congestion is the obstruction of traffic flow which is one of the problems in developing countries. The main factor that causes congestion is the rapid population growth and lifestyle of the population. This observation aims to determine the factors that have caused congestion on Basuki Rahmat Street, Kaliwates District, Jember Regency. Our data is obtained directly by using descriptive survey methods, which are supported by observation, documentation and description analysis techniques. The results of this observation show that rapid population growth and the lifestyle of the population who prefer to use private transportation have a significant influence on the congestion that occurs on Basuki Rahmat Street, Kaliwates District, Jember Regency. According to the data we obtain from population growth and the lifestyle of the population, there needs to be self-awareness from the users of private transportation and the need for government support or attention to society and the environment.
