Abstract

The present paper focused on the choice model of trip mode chain for inter-island commuters in a case on the commuter’s travel in North Maluku Province, Indonesia. The study conducted an interview survey using a questionnaire sheet instrument for civil servant commuters which have trip route for Ternate Island to Halmahera Island. The condition logit model approach was utilized in order to construct the choice model of the trip mode chain for the commuters. There were four alternative choice of the trip mode chain from origin to destination place which faced by the commuters. The four trip mode chains consist of firstly, private car – crossing mode – taxi motorcycle; secondly, private motorcycle – crossing mode – taxi motorcycle, thirdly, public transit – crossing mode – taxi motorcycle; and fourthly, taxi motorcycle – crossing mode – taxi motorcycle. In this regard, the crossing modes consist of three modes such as ferry, speed boat, and fast ship. The attributes of the choices which taking account into the model were travel time and travel cost. The modelling results showed that the second choice was largest chosen by the commuters than the others choices. However, the fourth and the first choices were a little bit smaller chosen by the commuters than the favorite choice. Additionally, the commuters more considered travel time than travel cost in choosing their trip mode chain.
