Infrastructure limitations, particularly in the availability of Temporary Disposal Sites (TPS), have resulted in waste accumulation and pose a risk of increased environmental pollution. This research aims to analyze the volume of waste generation, evaluate the existing conditions of TPS, ad assess the capacity of infrastructure in handling waste in Kota Selatan Subdistrict, Gorontalo City. This research employs a quantitative analysis method combined with field surveys focusing on waste volume and the availability of Temporary Disposal Site (TPS) infrastructure in Kota Selatan Subdistrict. Data collection involved direct observation, recording of waste volume generated, interviews with waste management officials, and sampling following the procedures established in SNI 19-3964-1994. The results indicate that the total volume of waste in Kota Selatan Subdistrict reaches 111,03 m<sup>3</sup>/day, with contributions from residential sources at 6,01% and non-residential sources at 93,99%. The availability of TPS infrastructure is highly limited, with only two (2) functioning container units out of the ideal requirement of approximately 19 units. The percentage of waste successfully transported reaches 82,95% of the total daily waste generation, leaving about 17,05% uncollected. Meanwhile, the waste transport frequency achievement in the research area stands at 82,64% of the targeted frequency.</em></p>2025-07-01T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2025 Composite Journalhttps://composite.ft.ung.ac.id/index.php/cj/article/view/145EVALUASI ANGKUTAN SEDIMEN MELAYANG PADA SUNGAI BONE DI PROVINSI GORONTALO2025-11-02T23:28:05+07:00Wardah Putriwardahptr222@gmail.coKomang Arya Utamakomangaryautama@ung.ac.idRawiyah Husnanrawiyah@ung.ac.id<p>Sungai Bone mengalami pendangkalan di bagian muaranya.

Yamin A.R. Koniyo serves as a connection between commercial areas, tourist attractions, fast-food restaurant zones, and religious sites. As a result, this intersection experiences heavy traffic flow. Additionally, its asymmetric/weaving geometric design extends travel time from one approach to another. This study aims to evaluate the intersection's performance and level of service using the Indonesian Highway Capacity Guidelines (PKJI) 2023 and simulation modeling with PTV Vissim Student Version. The analysis results based on PKJI 2023 show the delay values as follows: Jalan Moh. Yamin at 49 seconds with level of service E, Jalan A.R. Koniyo at 38,1 seconds with level of service D, Jalan Raja Eyato (west) at 49,5 seconds with level of service E, and Jalan Raja Eyato (east) at 33,6 seconds with level of service D. The average intersection delay is 37 seconds, classified as level of service D. Meanwhile, the simulation results using PTV Vissim Student Version indicate delay values of 73,4 seconds with level of service E for Jalan Moh. Yamin, 72 seconds with level of service E for Jalan A.R. Koniyo, 46,3 seconds with level of service D for Jalan Raja Eyato (west), and 27,8 seconds with level of service C for Jalan Raja Eyato (east), with an average intersection delay of 54,5 seconds with level of service D. Four alternative solutions were proposed to improve the intersection's performance. The best solution is Alternative 2. which reduced signal phases four to three. This adjustment reduced delays by approximately 33% compared to current conditions, without requiring additional infrastructure costs.</p>2025-07-01T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2025 Composite Journalhttps://composite.ft.ung.ac.id/index.php/cj/article/view/156ANALISIS KINERJA LALU LINTAS PADA RUAS JALAN BACHARUDDIN JUSUF HABIBIE DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN PERANGKAT LUNAK VISSIM2025-11-02T23:27:47+07:00Nur Fauziah Juliana Huntafauziahjuliana15@gmail.comYuliyanti Kadiryuliyanti_kadir@ung.ac.idFrice Lahmudin Deseifricedesei@ung.ac.id<p>The Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie Road, which underwent improvements compared to the previous year, has not yet experienced traffic congestion.

Patunranginurfajrina@untad.ac.idAristi Ayuningsi Ode Asriaristiayuningsi@ung.ac.id<p>Rapid population growth in urban areas affects various aspects of life, including population mobility and changes in socio-economic activities. One of the negative impacts resulting from these changes is the increase in noise levels, which becomes a significant source of sound pollution in urban environments. This study aims to identify the traffic noise levels generated by activities at Pasar Lasoani, Palu City, and analyze the factors influencing them, such as vehicle volume and vehicle speed. The methods used in this study include noise measurement, traffic volume analysis, vehicle speed measurement, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results show that the noise levels at Pasar Lasoani on Saturday exceeded the environmental quality standards, with noise levels at monitoring points reaching 74 dB. On Monday, when there was no market activity, the noise levels were lower. Vehicle volume and speed were found to have a significant impact on noise levels, with vehicle volume having a positive effect and vehicle speed having a negative effect on noise levels. The multiple linear regression analysis indicated that vehicle volume (X1) and vehicle speed (X2) significantly influence noise levels simultaneously. Noise distribution mapping using Surfer 11 software showed variations in noise levels at different points in the Pasar Lasoani area, with the highest noise levels occurring on Saturday. This study provides a clear understanding of the factors influencing noise levels and noise distribution in crowded market areas, as well as the contribution of economic activities to urban environmental quality.</p>2025-06-30T22:11:15+07:00Copyright (c) 2025 Composite Journal
