Abstract

The railway system is one of the mass transportation modes capable of efficiently transporting enormous amounts of people from one location to another in a brief period. The railway infrastructure in Indonesia has a rich history dating back to the colonial era of the Dutch, the Japanese occupation in the Asia-Pacific region, and the declaration of independence in Indonesia. Currently, the railway network in Indonesia is small and unevenly distributed. According to the National Railway Master Plan 2030 states that railway development will be extensive, not only on the island of Java but also on the larger islands of Indonesia, including Sumatra. One of the planned railway development projects in Sumatra is in the West Sumatra Province. Presently, the railway network in West Sumatra is limited, with many tracks being inactive or removed. However, there are plans to revive deactivated tracks and expand the railway network. The initiative has given rise to the concept of geometric planning for the railway track from Naras to Lubuk Basung. There is currently no existing literature or journals discussing this railway track concept, as no studies have been conducted on the vertical and horizontal alignment of the track. The development of this route is expected to support the potential for nature and culinary tourism, as well as facilitate the transportation of goods from Teluk Bayur Port for economic development in West Sumatra.
The methods implemented in the geometric design planning research for Naras – Lubuk Basung railway include the collection of primary and secondary data, determining the design route, determining railway geometry, considering railway construction, planning station emplacement yard, and creating shop drawings.
This final project evaluates the previously existing route on Naras – Sungai Limau line, including the remaining warehouse building, with the aim of redesigning the route compatible with the new reference points. The design of the Naras – Lubuk Basung line has a track length of 53,910.596 meters with 35 points of intersection and 6 planned stations. The designed track is a double track with a 1067 mm gauge, using R.54 rails and a design speed of 120 km/h. The railway track construction uses N-67 sleepers from PT WIKA Beton, DE Spring Clips fastening, and W12 switch. The designed thickness of the top ballast is 30 cm, and the sub-ballast is 45 cm. This track has a cumulative fill volume of 765,537.63 m³ and a cumulative cut volume of 1,723,887.50 m³.
