Abstract

Abstract Road damage that has occurred on several roads has caused enormous losses, especially for road users, such as long travel times, congestion, accidents, and others. It is necessary to pay attention to this so that there is no deterioration in road quality due to road surface damage so that it can affect safety, comfort, and smoothness of traffic. Therefore, researchers damaged road surface conditions, which can affect the travel time of the vehicle. The purpose of this research is to identify the type and level of road damage and to determine road-handling priorities. The results of calculating the condition of each provincial road section in the Aceh Besar District using the PCI method are included in the very good, good and moderate categories, so that the type of handling can be determined is routine maintenance. From the results of the analysis of respondents by using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), said that the priority road-handling by using several criteria, namely: the order of 1 is the type of treatment with a weight of 0.47, then the second is the condition of the road with a weight of 0.37, then the third-order is accessibility with a weight of 0.12, and the fourth place is a land use with a weight of 0.04. As for the alternative road-handling priority obtained a score’s greatest at road Keutapang Dua - Mata Ie with the acquisition of a score of 0.34, then alternate both at road Batas Kota Banda Aceh - Sp. Lam Ateuk 0.32, the third alternative on road Ir. M. Thaher 0.26, for the fourth alternative on road Sp. Lamreueng-Sp.
