Perencanaan dan Estimasi Biaya Box Culvert di Ruas Jalan Tetewatu, Konawe Utara

Abstract

The development of road infrastructure in Indonesia, including bridges, is a top priority to drive sustainable economic growth. Roads and bridges play an important role in accelerating the transportation of goods, supporting agriculture, and reducing economic disparities between regions. This study focuses on the planning of box culvert construction on Jalan Tetewatu, North Konawe Regency, and Southeast Sulawesi. This location has an emergency wooden bridge that is inadequate for smooth transportation. The research method includes investigating existing conditions, collecting supporting data, and analyzing box culverts. The planned box culvert is a double type with a wet cross-section dimension of 3.00 m x 3.00 m, which will replace the existing emergency bridge. The budget plan (RAB) for this project reaches IDR 2,008,090,000. This study concludes that replacing the emergency bridge with a box culvert will improve the safety and smoothness of transportation, as well as support local economic growth.
