In collaboration with the Department of Cleanlines and Green Open Space of the City of Surabaya, the Department of Transportation launched a new means of transportation, namely the Suroboyo Bus. Uniquely, the Suroboyo Bus is paid for with plastic bottle waste. The purpose of this Suroboyo Bus is to reduce plastic waste and congestion in the city of Surabaya. The type of research is descriptive with a qualitative approach. The focus of this research uses policy implementation, according to Edward G. III, namely, communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The results of this study are that implementing the Suroboyo Bus is considered quite good, there is support from the public, and has a real impact. On the other hand, there are still obstacles in implementing the Suroboyo Bus, which has not been properly integrated in waste contribution procedures.
