Abstract

Abstract- This research reveals that overall the performance of transportation infrastructure network in terms of tourism development of Sulawesi Island is found to be quite good despite some improvements to make especially in terms of accessibility, punctuality, and comfort. It unveils that facility and infrastructure provision in many areas still needs improvements. Internal and external integration between each mode of transportation are badly low. This is mostly due to lack of transportation facility to exchange the modes, disorganized schedule for transportation service, limited number of vehicles for the vital internal and external mode of transportation service, and limited number of networks of infrastructure and service connecting between areas. It is possible to say that there is deprivation of integrated transportation of internal modes. Hence, this research also recommends the way to develop land transportation in a subtle detail to enhance its role in supporting the development of tourism in Sulawesi Island. This study aims particularly at taking a hard look at the relation between type of tourism, mode of transportation especially land transportation, and development of tourism in Sulawesi. It is expected that knowing the relationship between each of these components will lead us to a formulation of potentials and role of land transportation to develop tourism. This research was conducted in several analytical stages namely: 1) Spatial scope analysis, 2) prediction of travel demand analysis, 3) Transportation and spatial scope analysis, and 3) Analysis on the potentials and role of land transportation to develop tourism. On the account of this study, it is revealed that there is a greater need for organizing types and quality of transportation network to support tourism, that is by providing nodal transportation, sufficient transportation network, public transportation, and travel service/ travel agent, and program to enhance the quality of transportation management system which should be integrated, reliable, safe, comfortable, informing the system of tourism transportation, and road service for tourism. Keywords –network, mode, tourism, role, land transportation
