Keywords:

This study aims to evaluate community-based transportation programs in West Nias Regency and analyze their impact on social connectivity, especially related to increased access to basic services such as education, health, and the economy. This program aims to improve transportation infrastructure, improve road conditions, and strengthen transportation systems that support community mobility. Based on the available data, despite the increase in paved road length and improved road conditions, major challenges are still faced, especially related to heavily damaged roads and limited public transportation. Existing community-based transportation programs have not been fully able to support optimal social connectivity between regions in West Nias. The study found that community participation and collaboration with the private sector are key to the sustainability and effectiveness of the program. The results of the study show that to overcome the existing challenges, there needs to be a more intensive road maintenance strategy, the development of affordable and integrated public transportation, and more active tourism promotion to support the regional economy. This study suggests that stakeholders increase cooperation between the government, community, and the private sector to optimize community-based transportation programs, which in turn will improve social connectivity and community welfare in West Nias Regency.
