  • <p>Congestion in school areas during drop-off and pick-up times is a complex problem involving transportation, environmental, and social factors. This research analyzes the congestion cases at SD Negeri Kotaraja and SD YPPK Gembala Baik Abepura, Jayapura, focusing on the urgency of implementing drop point facilities. The research method combines quantitative (survey of 150 respondents) and qualitative (field observation, interviews) approaches. Results showed 86.7% of students were dropped off using private vehicles, with 91.3% of respondents supporting the construction of drop points mainly for safety reasons (62%). Significant impacts were identified on the environment (18% increase in CO2 emissions) and students' psychology (45% experienced stress). Statistical analysis revealed a strong correlation between private vehicle use and family income (r=0.72) and a moderate relationship between drop point support and home-school distance >3km (r=0.45). The conclusion of the study confirms that the implementation of drop points integrated with local needs and stakeholder participation is a potential solution. This study contributes both practically in the form of drop point design recommendations and theoretically through enriching the literature on school transportation in island areas. The main limitation lies in the sample coverage, so further research is recommended to test the effectiveness of the model through field experiments and technology integration.</p>
