Community dependence on private transportation is a major factor in traffic congestion. Community perception is one of many important aspects in policy-making because by involving the community, the decision-makers will be able to capture the views, needs, and expectations of the community. The purpose of this study is to examine people’s perceptions of the transit bus plan. The data collection method used is Stated Preference (SP) with a total of 100 respondents in stratified random sampling. The SP questionnaire contains information about socio-economic status and respondents’ perceptions. The results of the perception survey show that the overall psychological questions have values above 2.5 from the 4 scale Likert, which means that respondents’ perceptions of the transit bus plan are very positive. The respondents agree that the transit bus can be received with positive values.
