Abstract
One of Indonesian problems in infrastructure development is how to nationally avail Bus Rapid Transit having transit rail system in its development system. In the macroeconomic perspective, the availability of urban transport infrastructure services can affect the marginal productivity of private capital, while in the microeconomic perspective, such services can also decrease production costs. Moreover, the contribution of urban transport infrastructure to improving quality of life is indicated by the increase in welfare, productivity and access to employment, as well as macroeconomic stability. This research is descriptive trying to gain youth’s perception on Bus Rapid Transit in Medan. In this study, the primary and secondary data sources are used and the population include all users of Trans Mebidang. The samples are taken from those using the routes of Tanjug Anom to Down Town (or Pusat Kota), Jamin Ginting to Down Town, and Simpang Pos to Down Town and the samples chosen are only 15% of population. Sampling technique is purposive and accidental. It can be concluded that partially the Feature Perception (X1) gives impacts on the utilization of Trans Mebidang and partially the Accessibility Perception also brings effect to the utilization of Trans Mebidang.
