PERENCANAAN LAMPU PENGATUR LALU LINTAS PADA PERSIMPANGAN JALAN A.A. MARAMIS DAN JALAN RING-ROAD II MENGGUNAKAN METODE MKJI 1997

Persimpangan merupakan sumber konflik lalu lintas dimana arus lalulintas bertemu dan berpotongan. Persimpangan empat lengan di jalan A.A. Maramis dan jalan Ring Road II merupakan salah satu lokasi dengan banyak intensitas kendaraan akibat perpotongan arus lalu lintas yang tidak teratur karena tidak terdapatnya lampu pengatur lalu lintas serta rambu-rambu lalu lintas sehingga di lokasi persimpangan sering terjadi antrian dan tundaan pada tiap lengan persimpangan. Tujuan penelitian ini antara lain untuk mengetahui besarnya volume arus lalu lintas untuk setiap arah dari semua pendekat, serta situasi dan kondisi lalu lintas tanpa sinyal pada persimpangan sebelum dilakukan perencanaan pengaturan fase sinyal yang sesuai kondisi geometri, arus lalu lintas dan lingkungan persimpangan. Penelitian dimulai dengan pengukuran awal data geometrik lengan persimpangan kemudian mengambil data volume lalu lintas dengan melakukan survey selama 6 hari pada tanggal 13,16, 20, 23, 25 dan 27 November 2017 dari jam 08.00 – 20.00.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada kondisi eksisting didapat data arus lalu lintas (Q) = 4288 smp/jam, nilai DS 1,064, tundaan lalu lintas simpang 18,59, dengan tipe simpang 444. Setelah dilakukan perencanaan lampu dengan 4 fase sinyal di mana terdapat LTOR untuk semua arah lengan simpang. Fase 1 dimulai pada Pendekat Bandara, Fase 2 pada Pendekat Ring Road, Fase 3 pada pendekat Kairagi dan pendekat Pandu Fase 4. Didapat waktu siklus 131 detik, waktu hijau Fase 1 (44 detik), Fase 2 (15 detik), Fase 3 (48 detik), Fase 4 (6 detik) dengan nilai DS 0.876, kendaraan henti rata-rata 0,706 stop/smp serta tundaan simpang rata–rata 50,24 det/smp. Dari hasil analisa nilai DS telah melebihi angka 0,75 artinya tidak terlalu efektif dan sering terjadi kemacetan sehingga didapat tundaan yang besar pada simpang dan untuk mengatasinya dilakukan pelebaran jalan pada semua arah lengan simpang dengan menambahkan jalur khusus untuk belok kiri langsung sebesar 2,5 m. Untuk pengaturan fase sinyal sama seperti sebelumnya sehingga di dapat waktu siklus 73 detik dengan waktu hijau fase 1 (21 detik), fase 2 (7 detik), fase 3 (23 detik) dan fase 4 (3 detik). Untuk nilai DS menjadi 0,745 dengan tundaan simpang rata–rata 28,25 det/smp serta tundaan simpang rata-rata 0,597 stop/smp. Kata Kunci :Derajat Kejenuhan, Tundaan Simpang, Peluang Antria

Practical actions to strengthen capacity for deep-water research in Africa

While Africa's deep marine biodiversity offers economic prospects it also supports crucial ecosystem services and sustainable development is dependent on knowledge of these systems. Building understanding of deep-water ecosystems is key, but there are substantial discrepancies in countries' abilities to achieve this. Coinciding with the 2024 Ocean Decade Conference, the Challenger 150 African Network of Deep-water Researchers is pleased to release a report on “Practical Actions to Strengthen Capacity for Deep-water Research in Africa”. Through a series of online workshops, the ANDR brought together 98 individuals from 19 African nations to discuss challenges for deep-water research in Africa, identify solutions to overcome these and propose practical actions going forward

Lessons from bright-spots for advancing knowledge exchange at the interface of marine science and policy

Evidence-informed decision-making is in increasing demand given growing pressures on marine environments. A way to facilitate this is by knowledge exchange among marine scientists and decision-makers. While many barriers are reported in the literature, there are also examples whereby research has successfully informed marine decision-making (i.e., 'bright-spots'). Here, we identify and analyze 25 bright-spots from a wide range of marine fields, contexts, and locations to provide insights into how to improve knowledge exchange at the interface of marine science and policy. Through qualitative surveys we investigate what initiated the bright-spots, their goals, and approaches to knowledge exchange. We also seek to identify what outcomes/impacts have been achieved, the enablers of success, and what lessons can be learnt to guide future knowledge exchange efforts. Results show that a diversity of approaches were used for knowledge exchange, from consultative engagement to genuine knowledge co-production. We show that diverse successes at the interface of marine science and policy are achievable and include impacts on policy, people, and governance. Such successes were enabled by factors related to the actors, processes, support, context, and timing. For example, the importance of involving diverse actors and managing positive relationships is a key lesson for success. However, enabling routine success will require: 1) transforming the ways in which we train scientists to include a greater focus on interpersonal skills, 2) institutionalizing and supporting knowledge exchange activities in organizational agendas, 3) conceptualizing and implementing broader research impact metrics, and 4) transforming funding mechanisms to focus on need-based interventions, impact planning, and an acknowledgement of the required time and effort that underpin knowledge exchange activities
