Abstract

Land use development is following the needs of the community in a city. The development of land use and those usages could be difference from the Master Plan of the city. This may occur subject to the new policy or some new idea to adopt any general tendency of global change. The changing of land usage drives unmanageable traffic movement due to changing traffic generation or attraction of the new land use. This situation will increase travel time of the road network. The impact of increasing travel time is more affected to air travelers; increasing travel time in the access road to the airport may cause the lost of their flight. This research attempts to determine how much difference of travel time of road access to the airport from time to time that is caused by changing of land use. The result shows that the number of alternative routes to the airport is increased from six to eleven in year 2009 and 2014 respectively. However, the increasing number of access route is not followed by the reducing of travel time. Only two routes out of 11 that have less travel time from 2009.
