Abstract :

This study is a discussion of development in the perspective of the Provincial Road Management System (PRMS) which is closely related to the formulation of government policies. The strategy for formulating road management policies for sustainable development involves various aspects that are integrated with other aspects such as economic, social, and environmental. This includes planning, construction, and maintenance of efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly roads, and involves community participation. This study is formulated with two main objectives; 1) formulating the form of road management policy formulation for sustainable development, and 2) outlining the strategy for managing sustainable road development and having an impact on the community. Based on these two objectives, the relevant approach used is the Provincial Road Management System (PRMS). This study uses a literature review method with a descriptive analysis by applying the Theory of Sustainable Development by Gro Harlem Brundtland. The results of this study indicate that there are at least nine points, namely, Spatial Planning, Sustainable Road Development, Sustainable Road Management, Community Participation, Increasing Public Awareness, Public Transportation Development, Technology Application, Local Industry Development, and Environmental Impact Control. Road management policies for sustainable development need to be formulated early with various considerations in order to produce an optimal formulation that can be used for road management, especially for sustainable regional development.
