Characteristics Analysis of Parking Space Requirements an Integrated Cluster Residential Mosque

Abstract

The mosque is a vital public facility for community activities and Islamic worship. The An-Ni’mah Mosque, Citra Gran Cibubur Housing, Bekasi, Indonesia, serves numerous worshippers. However, inadequate vehicle parking arrangements can lead to traffic congestion around the mosque. This study aims to evaluate the parking facilities at the An-Ni’mah Mosque and assess the performance of the access road to the mosque. Data on parking characteristics, such as parking volume, accumulation, duration, space needs, index, turnover, and capacity, are collected and analyzed. Road performance is assessed using the Q/C ratio to determine the level of service of the access road, utilizing traffic data from Jl. Transyogi Cibubur. The analysis reveals that the parking facility at the An-Ni’mah Mosque supports short parking durations, typically less than 2 hours, influencing the overall parking dynamics and user satisfaction. The study concludes that while the An-Ni'mah mosque's parking facility is adequate for short-term parking, there is a need to consider further improvements to prevent traffic congestion and enhance user satisfaction, providing insights that can inform future planning and management of public parking facilities.
